I made it!! My Christmas present is here!!
 
I've been at or below goal for 2 days -- I've made it! Dancing in the streets!

Back in December, I realized that what I really wanted for Christmas was something that no one else could give me -- a new body!! Actually, my old body! I had always been thin until my mid-30's/early 40'swhen the weight started creeping on. In the past 11 years, I packed on 25 pounds. I was dumpy and lumpy and unhappy and helpless. Not a day went by that I didn't think about my weight.

So now I am here!! What does it feel like? Is it as great as I expected?? Yes. It is Wonderful! My daughters are thrilled and so proud of me. I can wear anything in my closet (except the pants that almost fall off me now.) I am at least 10 years younger. I am taller. Even my fingers are longer. I've got myself back.

Congratulations! Before and after pics are a must! :)

That's great! Did you modify th plan in any way, such as stay on Induction the whole time? Any legal foods that you just didn't go near? Was it hard?

Absolutely Awesome! Congratulations!


I have very very far to go before I reach my goal, but hearing about people who have reached theirs is an inspiration.

CELEBRATE! And be proud of your wonderful accomplishment!
