It has been a while, but exciting new this morning when I stepped on the scale........I have lost 46 pounds!!!!! Only 4 more pounds to go by August 11 to reach my first goal. It feels incredible! I am very proud of myself. I am also very thankful for all of the support from everyone along the way. Still thinking on my second weight loss goal; what it should be, how much more weight, what timeframe. This is really like the best birthday present I have ever given to myself. I have grown so much in the past few months on this journey. Some painful memories put to bed, some joyous times with my success. I really, really think that I can do this. I'm not sure what this is, meaning I don't have a total number that I want to lose as of yet, but I am working on that as well.
I started to exercise in the pool and was feeling so great about it, until I got a growth on my face (probably not cancer, waiting on test results) so I have been laying off of the sun for now. I am going to have to go buy a big hat to shade my face when I'm in the pool as well as sunblock. Trust me, this scare woke me up. No more trying to get some sun/color.
I will let everyone know when I reach 50 pounds!!! I have 2 more weeks. I can't wait.
Blessings to all!

FINALLY!!!!!
Happy 4th of July to all! Please remember that we live in the greatest country in the world and that comes with a price. Please remember and give thanks to all the men and women who sacrifice their lives every day so we may be free!
I finally broke the 40 pounds mark in my journey! I'm so excited! People are really starting to notice a difference in me. It feels really good. I am proud of myself. Only 10 more pounds to go to my first goal. I am determined to lose this last 10 pounds by my 41st birthday! It is a huge milestone. Once I hit this goal; time to set a new goal. I'm thinking 53 pounds. I just don't know by when. I would like by 2012, but that may be a little unrealistic and not enough time. I want to set realistic goals. I'm certain I can lose another 50 pounds, its just the date I'm not sure of yet. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Jan 25 will be my niece's 18th birthday. Maybe that is a good date to shoot for.
Until next time.............Blessings to all!
