Two Pounds until 100!
Two pounds.
I am two pounds away from having lost 100lbs. I may actually be closer as I haven't weighed myself today but let's go with the two pounds. And if I lose those two pounds before December 28th, I will have lost 100lbs in two years. A feat I must admit that I never thought I would do, let alone without the help of surgery or medication. But I shouldn't celebrate too soon...I am still two pounds away.
Where was I 98lbs ago? I remember people asking me what I thought I would look like when I lost 50lbs, 100lbs, and I couldn't give them an answer. It had been so long since I had seen myself at that weight I had no clue what it would look like, let alone feel like. I can tell you now though.
It. Feels. Wonderful! It's less pains, less aches, less illness, less weight! It's shopping off the rack and knowing it will fit. It's feeling pretty for the first time in a long time.
It's also been work. It's been sacrifice. It's been hard. There have been slip-ups but always a forward motion. I am not to my goal, but 100lbs is around the corner and then I am just 30lbs away from where I want to be. Because I know the charts say where I should be, but looking at my body now and my current weight, I highly doubt I could ever be 135lbs. I fit into a size 14 and haven't been that small since middle school!
So I am hoping these two pounds are gone by the end of the week. It's only Tuesday so there is definitely hope. In the meantime, I will keep doing what I've been doing...moving forward.
