    Default Half way!

    Well I'm half way there....79 lost, 80 to go. It hasn't been easy....long stall of almost 4 weeks...then surgery last week for hernia. But I'm getting there. I feel so much better, can walk without getting out of breath. Soon will be able to exercise at the gym which I couldn't do because of e hernia. Also went camping last week and hollered at my husband for not bringing MY chair. You all know the one...the BIG chair...the only one to hold my weight last summer...the one I was sure wouldn't break. He said it took up too much room and besides...who needed it? And you know he was right! The regular chair was just fine...I was even able to get out of it without help and without my butt getting stuck in it. Crazy the little things that make us feel good! I'm looking forward to many more.Enjoy your day folks!

    Fantastic, yay for you. But wait a min. I like my big chair and will not give it up, even more comfy now and everyone knows to stay out of it, why ruin a good thing just because of a little thing like losing 80 lbs. Bet camping was a lot more fun this year, think what next year will be like.

    Yeah you! I enjoyed the regular chairs while being at the lake a few times this summer. It is a scary feeling, but I was able to do it. Ah, the little things. Congrats on making it to your halfway point. I, too, am there with you.....82 pounds down and 77 to go

    Congrats!!

    Camping is so much easier this year, isn't it? I don't feel as hot as before. And I have more energy.
