GOAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLL..............

Sep 04, 2010

I think I'm going to hire the guy who announces all the soccer matches for the World Cup to walk around for a week in front of me shouting that.

Today...my dear friends...I stepped on the scale and saw 160 pounds.  I have reached the goal I set for myself when I started my weight loss journey in February 2009.

The only sadness at ALL is today Clint happens to be out of town, so he wasn't here to hear my squeal, and to hold me tight and tell me how proud he is of me.  But I know he will do that part tonight when he gets home.

The past few weeks have been so emotionally tiring for me, between my back issues rolling right into the abdominal issues and then the surgery becoming much more severe than originally planned.  Its almost as if my goal was here waiting for me as my reward of getting through all of this.  I know I still have a way to go in my recovery.  But my heart is renewed again.  Its happy.  Not because of the actual number...but because I reached a goal I set for myself.  My feeling of accomplishment is almost overwhelming.

I'm not going to maintain here.  I'm going to wait until my body picks where it wants to be.  I still have several pounds before I am at a 'normal' BMI so we'll see.  But everything from here on out is bonus!

Today is going to be a good day....oh...the hell with that.  Today is going to be an EXCELLENT day.
