    Without a doubt breaking 200lbs - Onederland!

    It was a long, hard climb up a rugged mountain, but I did it. 64lbs of lard GONE!
    Nothing will compare to that, and 2012 will be even better!

    1) Found my BF.
    2) Lost him to S. Korea for a year. This seems negative, but it was what I needed to realize the potential I have in myself. The day he left was the day I got serious on MFP and started training. I've never felt better though there are days that I struggle. (Plus we're still together so that helps:)

    1. Forced on maternity leave 3 months early--wait forced on leave of abscence
    2. Figuring out on that forced leave we could manage without my job
    3. Hubby and I having our first child--a boy
    4. Quitting my job before I was to return back to work
    5. Full time SAHM
    6. Starting 2 bussiness
    7. Hubby finding a new job with room for advancement (didn't have that before)
    8. Loosing 34lbs/hubby loosing 40lbs (Since Oct 2011)--only 60ish each to go to get back to our skinny 20something selves

    It has been a tough, trying year with lots of changes but full of AMAZING accomplishments for us both that we worked our A$@ off for instead of asking to be supported by our govt or someone else---WE DID IT--and that feels great!!
