It's a beautiful morning!!!

[tiggerlover]

I have been up and down in my weight so much lately that I was beginning to think I would be in the same weight zone forever. However the last few days I have been getting on the scale and it has shown the same loss so I am going to take it as official......I am down 1.7 pounds this week for a total of 39.5 pounds since starting WISH and 48.5 pounds since starting my weight loss journey. I am so excited, for the first time in 19 years I weigh less than my DH and I have finally said goodbye to the 170's! I am 1/2 pound away from my new clippie for WISH and 1-1/2 pounds away from losing 50 pounds, which will be a 23% weight loss for me.

I went back and looked at my journal yesterday and it has taken me exactly 2 months to lose 5 pounds, I knew it was a while, just didn't realize it was that long. When I went to London and gained 2-1/2 pounds I never thought I would make my Trick or Treat goal, but I am happy to say I have. It truly is a beautiful day!

Way to go tiggerlover!!! Congratulations on all your accomplishments. At the end of the day it doesn't matter how long it takes to get to where we're going, just as long as we get there!!

Good for you, TL! I'm so happy for you, and proud, too. I know that trip to London really had you concerned. Those weight plateaus (sp?) are tough, aren't they. So discouraging. But you've broke through. Yea!

Keep up the good work and you'll have that new clippie next week!

One day at a time...

I KNEW YOU'D MAKE IT!!!!!

Congratulations, Debbi! You are just a hair away from getting your 40 pound clippie. WOW!!!!!

You are a great loser - no matter if you lose 5 lbs in 2 weeks, a month, 2 months, etc. Keep up the great work!!!!!

Woo Hooo!!! I see so many good things in your post to congratulate you for that I hardly know which one to use first!!

Soooooo..... Congratulations on breaking that plateau, leaving the 170's behind & weighing less than your DH, being so close to a new clippie and a 23% (!!) weight loss, and (maybe this is the best one of all) hanging in there when the going was tough!!! Whew!!

Way to go, Tiggerlover!!!

Thanks to each of you. All of your inspiring words over the last 8 months have inspired me and motivated me and by that you each have helped me to get where I am today.

Congratulations. Hey, even though it took a bit of time to loose that 5 lbs, just think about all the healthy habits you created. You are 5lbs lighter. That is one less 5lb bag of sugar you are carrying on your body. You are doing great. I am glad its a beautiful day!
