Thanks for the offer.  This is actually our second time in Maui.  We went last year and did all the "tourist" things that you have to do the first time in Maui and this year we have decided to do a more relaxing trip, lol.  We are ziplining, renting the Jayhawk for the day and going deep sea fishing, going to the Big Island for the day, doing the Old Laihana Luau, going eat at Mama's Fish house for Thanksgiving and  the rest of the time just relaxing.  Anything you recommend just for leisurely days in Maui, you know, something we don't really have to plan ahead for?

Hi All,

     Sorry I've been MIA, I was being good about posting an update every month but we got hit by Hurricane Isaac at the end of August and got some damage to the house so been busy with that.  I love posting my progress pics because I know how much it encouraged me when I was in the losing phase of my journey.

    As of today, I am still currently weigh in at 152lbs, down from 308 where I started 19 months ago. I am in a size 8 pants down from a size 26 pants and in a size medium shirt down from a size 3x. I reached my goal around March and have been maintaining it since then.  I get on the scale every morning to keep myself in check.  There is no way I'm going to mess this up and start gaining again.  I've already told myself that. 

   I leave for Hawaii in about three weeks and it will be the first trip that I go on that I am at my goal weight.  I can't wait to be able to actually sit on a beach and not have to be the biggest one there.  Oh, it's the little things that make us happy!

   If you are just starting on this journey, I tell you this, stick with it and stick to plan, it works if you work it.  This has been the best thing I have ever done for myself and I would do it all over again.  I also could not have done it without the love and support of my OH family.  Thanks again for all your kind words and words of encouragement.  Hugs to you all.

And what would my post be without a before and after picture!

Topic: RE: Around 300lbs, how much did you lose?
I was 308 and am now down to 152lbs. I hit 100lbs down at six months and was pretty much at my goal of 160 at my year mark. I have lost a total of 156lbs. Good luck to you!

Topic: RE: Rant - no empathy for the shrinking plus-sized bridesmaid!!
Just lie and said that you ordered it, lol. I made the mistake of ordering a bridesmaid dress when I was in the middle of losing and paid $150 for the dress and then had to pay $100 in alterations. If she is a close enough friend that you are in her wedding then she should be more than understanding about holding off on ordering it or just tell her you will agree to order is if she pays for the alterations since she made you order it so early!
