Ok, this may sound silly, but I have no one around me who can appreciate my rediculous giddyness, so please bear with me....I HAVE LOST 3 POUNDS!!!!! I told you it was silly, but this is just so huge for me!!
I have always "daydreamed" of losing weight, always wake up and say, yup, todays the day, I'm walkin' today, I'm drinking water today, etc. etc....just to never actually DO it. Since I have gotton on this site, I have really been forced to reveiw my habits, simply because they are sitting there in black and white, staring at me. With the constant "reminding" this site offers, I just simply cannot excuse my way out of not doing whats good for me. So, after a lifetime, (well, 18 years or so, actually) of the scale ever so relentlessly creeping up, up, up...it's gone DOWN! Granted, it's down only 3 silly pounds, but for someone who only lost weight when I was pregnant (major morning, actually, all-day sickness) THIS IS HUGE!!!
Ok, I'm done now, thanks for letting me gloat in all my wonderful 3-pound-lessness!:bigsmile:

    That is wonderful. When I saw my first 3 pounds off, I realized I could do this. I am approaching 12 pounds now, and it is still working.
