Ticker finally moved

 I haven't changed my ticker since 7/9. My deal with myself is I leave it at the lowest weight I have seen on my scale. My actual weight bounced around .5-1.5 pounds above the 7/9 weight.

Finally this morning I was down .5 more!! June was 3 pounds, July 2.5, so I am truly a turtle about getting to my first goal of a normal BMI. Until this morning, I was concerned that I had reached the end of losing. Now with 2.5 to lose to get to "normal", I am confident I'll make it.

I am still losing hair in handfuls, so I know I am supposed to be in the active losing stage. I'll accept the hair loss, if the scale keeps creeping down.

Thanks to all for your support. I feel like I share my morning  with a bunch of wonderful people.

Hi Wendy!

Congratulations on the scale moving. It does become very, very slow, but slow and steady wins the race, right? The month before I reached goal, my loss was about 2 lbs, so it is normal for the weight loss to slow down.

Look forward to seeing you soon!!
