While this isn't an extreme mile stone, I was greatly encouraged today when I stepped on the scale and saw a 14 lb weight loss (have 26 more to go)!!... People can say it's "not about numbers" all they want, but I will never say that -numbers are motivating!!

I've battled addictions my entire life. I have overcome all my addictions except one. . . Food. My food addiction is, and will always be, a life long struggle. Food = survival. I have accepted the fact that I will "fall of the wagon" regularly. And even though I fall off, I also know that this life long race will be…
