Well Tuesday will be my three month anniversary and I find myself almost half way to my target goal, even with a seven week stall. Am I happy that I got my sleeve? Yes, yes, YES! Were there challenges? Yes, and I expect to have more challenges along this road to be traveled. I was thinking over the past few days that a year ago I was looking at "weight loss programs" and signed up but was unsuccessful - they promised me that I would reach my goal by June, well it didn't happen. This is year is going to be another story! Will I be unhappy if I am not at my goal weight by June, no way! Because I know that the weight that is gone will not be coming back to haunt me again and again. I have gotten rid of my 20's, 18's and 16's -- have a pair of size 12 jeans that I try on every week to check my progress -- they are getting closer. NSV's have been my greatest motivators . . . some expected and some not -- my face looks like my face, the first time in a long, long time. My kids like being seen with me in public, and this spring I won't be the fat mom chaperone! I have a much better attitude about myself and my winter depression has not been as deep as in the past! I go grocery shopping and the bakery does not scream my name. Once again, I am seeing the possibilities in my life!
