today is my birthday, and I have been thinking about where I was one year ago today. I weighed 35 more pounds. I had trouble going up a flight of stairs, and putting on my shoes. I felt horrible about myself. Now today I am down to 193 pounds, and I feel great!! I work out about 5 days a week, and I move around just fine. I also have no trouble putting my shoes on anymore:tongue: I have gone from a size 18/20 to a size 14!!!!!!!:glasses: I look forward to my next birthday to see where I will be on this journey of finding my true self:flowerforyou: I want to thank everyone on this site. It has been so great to read everyones comments. It has helped me realize that it is possible. Love you all:heart:

PS.. I got myself a present:blushing: I got a new ipod nana, so that I can workout with it.:tongue:

    Oh and evrery year my mom gets me an ice cream cake, but my daughters birthday was last week, and I didn't think it would be good to have cake in the house 2 weeks in a row, so I told my mom not to worry about getting me a cake this year:happy:

    But I am going out for a really good dinner tonight:love:
    I will be hitting the gym first though:blushing:

    Happy Birthday, PDX! I'm from the PDX area myself, and I just celebrated my birthday on November 4th. It was very unlike me to order soup and salad for my birthday dinner at Jake's Grill - but afterward, I was so happy with myself for my good decisions. We had a great time, and they even personalized my menu. I also worked out in the morning, like you. Have a wonderful evening! You'll do great.

    P.S. I love your photo of Trillium Lake! I have one, too, on my profile pics.
