The craziness begins again...plus, CLIPPIE CHANGE!!!!!!!!!

[firecracker]

Well, school starts for us next Tuesday! We (teachers) started our required days yesterday. Yuck! I was so happy to be home as a mommy this summer!

Here's the best part! I didn't tell most of my teacher friends about my weight loss...and SO MANY noticed and asked me about it yesterday! Even my (male) administrator and athletic director!

I can't wait until Sunday to change my clippie...when I weighed today I'm down 4 pounds already this week! Yippee!!! That puts me at 16 on WISH and 20 pounds TOTAL since July 1st! I can't tell you how happy I am and how much better I feel...both physically and about myself!

Thanks to you all for your encouragement! Just like with my students, success builds success!

Carmen,

How exciting to go back to school and have everyone notice what a super job you did losing weight over the summer months. I bet you are so proud of yourself! Keep it up!

I work at a school as well and it is so crazy to start back up! Just think how much healthier and happier you are now - dealing with crazy school should be nothing for you!

I am amazed at how much you were able to lose in one summer. Stories like yours are what inspires me to go on. Hope you have a super happy, healthy and successful year!:D

nice job! I am a teacher, too, and go back Aug. 25! I have lost about 15 since early June (when school got out), only 6 doing Atkins! I hope someone notices at work! I haven't said anything to anyone from work yet, either!
Congrats!!
