Success Stories

I'm half way to my goal!! YIPPEE!!!
(Sandy - sandign)

Little did I think when I started this WOE in May that I would actually make it this far. But I have and I'm now half way to my goal. I've maintained that average status for a few days so I don't thin it's a fluke! It was faster than I thought (but of course never fast enough) and I'm thrilled.

Not only can I wear clothes that I haven't worn in yrs. but I took 3 skirts out for alterations yesterday. And I can finally cross my legs comfortably. I have a choker necklace, that up until this week, really did choke me. Now I can wear it and look good. It's amazing how much I've lost in the neck region. Weird!

I doubt if this last half will come off as fast as the first half, but I'm ready for it. I actually set my goal higher than I want because it will be the lowest I've weighed in 11 yrs. Once I make it this first goal I can re-evaluate things. Bodies sure change over the years.

Today is a celebration!! Half way there, PLUS I made a sale yesterday that could be the start of BIG things to come for me during the next year. Think I'll buy a new outfit this weekend that really fits!!! Maybe SOMEONE will finally say something besides my neighbor! (And one person a few weeks ago)

Thanks everyone for your support!!
