I have reached my first weight loss goal and exceeded it by 1 lb.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am soooooooo excited. You guys don't know how long it's been since I've weighed this "less"!
I was so excited this morning that I woke Larry up and told him. Actually, I'm suprised he didn't hear me yell when I got on the scale!
I dancing today! YOOOOHOOOOO
Now to set my next goal - think it's going to be smaller steps than the first goal!
Have a GREAT Friday my friends!
Love

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
You've done so well - I'm really proud of you. Losing weight is so hard for most people, and you make it look easy! You should send your story into a magazine like "First". They're always featuring people who've lost weight. I went to the doc yesterday, and have lost 3 lbs. Not much, but my clothes look better. And thank you again for the tips.
How wonderful Mars. I bet you are soooo proud of yourself. You have done so well. You will get to your next goal with no trouble. Noticed that your photo was gone. Are we to be seeing the new you soon???
Love

Thanks everyone! Your encouragement helps to keep me on track.
Liz,
I am trying to get another avatar to work but no luck yet. I have to get another pic taken (we have a camera but no new me yet). I'll try to get another one real soon!
The next phase is to set the goal at 5 or 10 lbs at a time. The first goal set was 35 lbs. Believe it or not, I don't look thin after loosing that much but those around me can notice a difference and I notice that I have much more energy and feel better. I think I notice it more because all of my clothes are too big!
The D isn't around too much but it does pay an occasional visit but I usually I know what causes it. I think that is from changing my diet.
Thanks again everyone!
