Excited after leaving the Dr.'s for the 1st time!

[weare6travelers]

I went for my annual physical this morning and my male Dr. actually called me "THIN". YIPEE I have never been called thin. I have fought my weight all my life and in the last 5 to 6 years have lost 50 pounds, put on 20 pounds and since August have lost 25 pounds. I have not been this thin since before I gave birth to my oldest daughter who is 20. And boy do I feel great!!! My goal is to loose 5 more pounds, which I am finding to be extremely difficult.

I have to thank all of you who post your wonderful encouraging stories, they have been very helpful to me!! I don't post often, but I do look daily to read all the great suggestions and motivational ideas you all have. THANK YOU

WOW, that is great!!! How exciting to have the doc say that!!! Keep up your hard work and you will have those last 5 gone...I have heard that the last 5-10 is the hardest because our bodies are just holding on to them for dear life.

Thanks for sharing your wonderful news!!

How incredibly exciting! That's fantastic.

I smiled broadly at your 5 to 6 years. My weight loss - I'm not 100% sure of the number I never did scales at one point - over 70 pounds was in about 8-10 years. With 35 of it coming off in the last year. Here's to getting there no matter what.

I'm so happy for you. Well done.
