Hit goal!
Jul 27, 2010
I reached my “ultimate goal” this morning of 116- yay! Now I guess I’m officially in maintenance? *shudders* I’m not sure I entirely like that idea. The M word still scares the crap outta me. If I’m honest with myself I think I still want to shave off another 5 lb or so for “bounceback weight” (which I worry about incessantly), but I’m not thinking about that today
So in just under 14 mos I have:
-lost 178 lbs
-went from a sz 22/24 to a sz 2
-bra from 44H to a 34DD (should be 32DD but they’re next to impossible to find)
-went from an almost off the chart liver enzyme # and cholesterol # plus high blood pressure to perfect enzyme #s, cholesterol, and blood pressure
-went from not being able to run to the end of my driveway to running 4+ miles regularly and I am scheduled for a half marathon this October
-got the balls to end a horrible marriage
-decided to go back and get my MBA to pursue the career I’ve always wanted to have because now I feel like I’ll live past 30 so I’ll have the chance to make it happen.
I have my life back. I finally feel like I have a life in front of me, full of endless possibilites and every day the chance to be the person I want to be. I hope I always remember this day and how blissful it feels.
