It may not seem like a big deal to some of you, but I finally met my first goal of five pounds lost! I just had to tell you all because it's just so dang exciting! I feel like jumping up and down and screaming, 'Yippeeeee!!!" :happy:

Hope everyone else is having a great morning so far and happy Friday! :flowerforyou:

    5lbs is a big deal. Go and try and lift 5lbs of sugar/canned goods/whatever is lying around - it's more than most think!
