Excellent! Now that is a reward indeed. Typically when I lose weight, I'll go out and buy a new shirt or pair of pants to celebrate the new me.

You are not only starting a new life soon, but also fitting in to it.


Just a quick note though. I prefer my women more robust. I see you have 140 as your target weight. For me that'd be too light. If I had a woman who got below my ideal weight for her, I'd be silent and let her go her own path, even though I saw all those wonderful curves and areas I most enjoy dwindle into malnourishment.

If he's marrying you at your current weight, then like me, he has a heart for the person inside. However, as you are dropping those inches, you may want to remind him that he does have some say in how much of the curves you opt to keep.

If it were me, I'd say 160 is a good target. Sorry, not to be rude, but lots of men think those models you see on TV are nothing but bony strips of skin.

Keep up the good work, and leave some left for your man-for-life-to-be...
