It's funny...I wasn't going to 'count' the weight loss from being sick at first...but then I thought...you know, weight loss is weight loss!!! And, I'm very happy about it.

I just saw a motto that said, "Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans" and I thought...wow, how true is that. I have to step back from myself a few times a day to keep my head on straight and realize why I'm doing this and why I'm here and to make sure I appreciate my life. I figure, this is an accomplishment no matter how I got here. I'm proud of myself, finally.

Default Re: Had to share...40 lbs. lost so FAR!!!!

Katelynn weighs 45 lbs. I picture myself throwing a 5 year old on my back (mentally throwing, not physically, LOL!!!).Dalton weighs 60 lbs. I picture myself lugging him around yet...he's 9.
Darrin weighs 26 lbs. I picture him being my short term goal and ridding myself of that weight.

It's a nice reminder having the kids around and knowing their weights. It truly reminds me how much excess I'm still carrying around.

Then, I think, man I used to weigh 260 at my heaviest. I'm actually down 76 pounds from that!!!
