So 21 long weeks ago today, I was getting ready to leave for the hospital for this life changing surgery. I am one pound away -ONE POUND- from my goal of losing 95 pounds (100 is the "ultimate" goal... if that happens, it happens). I go to Zumba class in a half hour, so I possibly could be at GOAL by noon.

I do deserve something, right? I could use a nice, new pair of Skechers tennis shoes. Maybe I'll indulge.

Lori! That is amaze balls!! One Freaking Pound!!! You got this!! I knew you would. You have had such an amazing grit and determination since your supervised weight management. I have no doubt you will hit your 100 lb weight loss goal as well. You totally deserve a reward. Amazon Prime Baby!! It is how I reward myself. New sneakers for running. Reflectors. Vitamins.

Re: Nearly 6 months out- 1 pound away from GOAL!
Thanks Christie. I think 100 pounds is doable, just need to get this 1 freaking pound GONE to hit my original goal weight. Originally Posted by Christie13

Ok, you run. What kind of bra do you wear for that? Even though I have lost 10+ inches in my chest (from DD) and am down to a 38B, the 'girls' just seems to bop around in Zumba class and it's uncomfortable. (I wore Glamorise bras prior years ago but they weren't exactly high impact either.) My sister said she wears a compression bra when she works out, but said her chest is crushed. I don't want a uni-boob.
