Yes you see that right.... 178 and I promise those ARE my feet on that scale!  Yes it isn't exactly weigh in day but.. I could not resist this morning... and I am glad I didn't.  I actually had a 179 on the scale on Tuesday which IS weigh in day BUT it was 179.8 and I was full prepared to the 180's again because we all know it goes up and down.  But when you get close to the 77's I never see the last set of numbers again like the 180's  So I am hoping for that one other pound so I won't be int he 180's EVER again! 

When I looked at my spreadhseet it has been exactly 4 months since I first weighed 199.. so 4 months to lose 20 pounds!  Seemed like forever but when I really think about it.. that is 5 pounds a month which is like a pound a week which is horrible.. just slower than it used to be.  So although I was REALLY hoping to be at least be in the 160's for my one year I know it might not happen.. and thats ok.  I am hoping to be there some day though and have really quit putting a date on all of it now... I will just look forward to the next set of numbers.. and bitch about it along the way LOL

And now it is even smaller victories.. like I used to go by 10's.. I couldn't WAIT to be int he 170's.. but now I haven't been this weight since pre-kids... 6 1/2 years ago... probably around when we got married 7 years ago!  Now I am looking forward to even 175... 175... wow.  And then 169... I think I will focus on 5's now :)    Hoping that when it is time to wear jeans again I will be in an 8.. I couldn't even imagine that... but know it IS possible!
