Well today was my weekly WI! I am so happy to report that after only losing 1 pound last week, I am down 3 this week. Not only is that really good, but I have finally hit the 30 pound mark!!! I have actually made it. However my first goal is 50 pounds, but hey I should look at every pound gone as a goal. So the way I see it I have lost 30 pounds since May 9th, 2008, and from my highest weight of 308 last year, I am down a whopping 42 pounds!!! I still have a long way to go, but I just keep looking ahead! I will never know why I thought this was so hard or so bad. Well, I mean it is hard fighting back the urge to shovel 2 quarter pounders with cheese in your mouth, and sticking to the exercise, but it has so been worth the effort. I have found that lately that my heartburn is gone, I don't feel as much tension on my shoulders and back, I sleep better, and I have more energy, and best of all, I am smiling more.
Anyway, YEAH ME! Hope everyone is doing well.
Loads of love,
Kami

Congrats!!
That's so awesome!! GREAT job!! Woooohooooo!! I agree 100% - this is hard work, but you are doing a wonderful job with your healthier choices!
doing great.....Let's see.....aren't one of those big bags of mulch about 40 lbs?...imagine carrying that around all the time?!...now that's why you are feeling better.
First - thank you so much for stopping by my blog, and your incredibly wise and kind comments. You are dead on - it's what's on the inside that truly counts. Now.. if only we could convince the rest of the world of that, but it does seem like it's slowly changing. :) People are becoming more aware of what's truly important, and it's long overdue :)
By the way - one pound - think of a pound of butter! 3 pounds... think of - well, three butters LOL. And I love what Kim said about the mulch - try lifting that now! I'm just about there with you on the weight loss. And yes, it's a lot less painful than I thought it was in the past. I think really, it all comes down to attitude, and being ready to tackle it once and for all.
Congrats! You're doing great! And nice to meet you!
