Meltdown on the Scale - Oh My!!
Today, I weighed myself and burst into tears. Not from despair or frustration. But from the realization that I: now weigh less than I did as a Sophomore in HS (34 years ago), have less than 40 pounds to go to hit MY personal goal. But most importantly, I weigh less than a nay-sayer Dr. (I no longer see..) said I would never be able to get down to because of my previous high SMO weight.
Staying the course, always on plan - 100% of the time. The light at the end of the tunnel continues to get brighter!

Elina,
Thank you. I love who I am becoming. I have always been okay with who I am (no matter the weight amount), but this person I am becoming....daily amazes me. :)

You're doing amazing! I mean AMAZING!!! I hope you will see your nay-sayer doctor one last time...or he will see you. A nice framed photo captioned, "Don't judge a book by it's cover" or something equally witty should suffice. Glad you didn't listen to him.
Congratulations!
LOL!!
