turning 45/loosing 45
Today is my 45th birthday and as of this morning I've lost 45 pounds!!! Of course I got on the scales very gingerly, exhaling all the way. The last 2 months have been so hard going up and down but never going past 225. But thanks to the wonderful support I've recieved not only from here but from my co-workers, I hung in there and lost. We normally have a free-for-all potluck for someones' birthday but they all planned an Atkins friendly lunch. If you're reading this and thinking of giving up-DON'T-hang in there and ask for support. You will definitely get it here.
I went to buy myself a new birthday outfit last night and left empty-handed. The clothes in the "Womens World" were too big with no shape and the clothes in the "Regular World" were just a little to tight. Oh well, I could think of worse situations to be in.
I'm sorry this is so wordy, but I can't begin to thank all of you out there who have shared your stories, suggestions and support.
