    LOVE this topic!!! Thanks for starting it.

    True happiness for me: I got engaged a week ago!!! I'm 36 and have waited a LONG time to find "the one." :-D My life was very much of a Bridget Jones Diary, so I cannot even describe how happy and blessed I feel.

    I am getting in shape to 1) prevent back and sciatic nerve pain by buidling muscle tone 2) get in shape for my wedding and 3) be in shape for hopefully having babies!

    Looking forward to reading others positivities!!!!

    Today is a good day...for the second day in a row..I have unofficially lost 2 pounds when I step on the scale in the morning. It would put me at about 213.2...closer to onederland...and closer to my overall goal. Crossing fingers for good numbers this coming Monday!

    That is incredible news. . .love this. . . I too am on the mission to lower cholesterol. . .dropped it 30pts in my first 2 months of change. . .So your NSV gives me faith that it will drop to normal.

    I love mfp and the support and positivity I've received from folks.

    I discovered sugar free hershey's chocolate syrup (2 tablespoons for 15 calories) for those chocolate times.

    Philly Swirls (14 calories) for those ice cream times.

    Finally, I am thrilled that I have lost as much weight as I have, but am even more thrilled that I feel great and am off all my type 2 diabetes medications. Oh yeah, and that I can fit comfortably in my bathtub and take a bubble bath!

    I started to do my two mile walk at home with my BFF Leslie Sansone (lol) and turned it off and did 3 miles instead :)

    I used to hate to share my food with my 3 year old now I always ask her to share because it means i'm eating less :)

    I got dressed today and didn't change clothes and keep having to pull my jeans up :)

    Yay for Friday :)

    Also, myheritage.com thing gave me Kate Winslet as my celebrity look alike. She's my favorite actress and one of my lovely friends on here thought the picture was actually me. Total win.

    I have fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue and hypothyroid , and since losing weight, eating healthier and exercising I have been able to lower my percocet from 6-8 a day to just 2 a day and also lowered my blood pressure from 138/92 to 109/48 incredible. I even asked the nurse to double check it because I couldnt believe i lowered it that much.........

    That's awesome. . . Because I know how hard it is to contend with those. . I had a diagnoses similar to that at one time. . but the Lord healed me. . .
