After months and months of battling to loose weight its finally started to happen!! Jan 1 I started to try and watch what I ate. It didnt help much that I was working in a doctors office and eatting all the junk food and lunches that the drug reps brought in. I switched jobs about 3 1/2 weeks ago and since then I have lost 15 pounds!!!

My starting weight was around 263 (I think) and Im now 249.2. My first goal was to be under 250 by my birthday on June 20th. My next goal is to loose 15 more by Aug 1st.

Some people have even noticed how my face has thinned out a lot. But what makes it even more great is this morning as Im getting my 7-year-old ready for school he wraps his arms around me to give me a hug and says "Mommy, when I hug you I can put both my arms all the way around you and my hands touch!!" I said "I know, isnt that great?" He says "No, its suprising!!" The stuff kids say!! I just about cried!! =)=)

    Good job!

    Feels good, right? Just think, if you meet your next goal, you can rub it in the faces of the people who made fun of your weight! :bigsmile:

    Keep at it.

    That's super! congratulations. I love that you have made some short term goals. I haven't done that yet.

    My boy likes to slap the back of my arms and watch them jiggle. :) (He's 6 years old) I am so excited for the day when he goes to slap and I won't jiggle! LOL I love that your boy noticed how skinny you are getting.
