Mini-goal check-in...
Okay well my starting weight was 203- wanted to loss 10 pounds by the 11th. Didn't make that goal, however I am currently at 197 and that makes another 6 pound loss for me. So I have 8 pounds to lose by the labor day check in.
NSV - went back to school this week and had to tell a couple of people who I was- pretty neat feeling. MElissa

Hi Tara!
Well, I'm like Marilyn in the fact I did not sign up for the Back To School portion of the challenge. but I thought it was a neat idea just to check in. My initial goal for Labor Day was to lose 10 pounds by then and be at 200 pounds. I am happy to say I met that goal early! As of today, I am at 200 pounds. I will take everything I lose by Labor Day as Sugar Free Icing on the cake!
Now for my NSV. I was one of the last people to get my Uncle Sam Stimulus check. The first thing I purchased was new glasses. My old ones were falling off my face due to weight loss! I turned around and sent in the receipt for reimbursement through my flexible spending account. That money was deposited on Friday 8/1. So, I took that money and went shopping for me! That's right, I did something for me! The NSV part of the story is this ~ shirt size MEDIUM, down from a 4X ~ pants 36 inch waist, down from a 54 inch waist!
To borrow Master Cards tag line:
My surgery ~ $65000
To finally feel good about myself ~ PRICELESS!!!!!!!
Have a great day!
