Hello Everyone

 

I hope all my friends are doing well and are looking forward to a wonderful thanksgiving I cant believe its next week the year went by fast

 

 

Im happy to report Im down another 4 lbs thats the most Ive lost in a week for a while and Im thrilled so Ive lost fifty lbs so far this year This brings me down to 215 This was an emotional number for me The last time I saw 215 on a scale I was thirteen years old and I was in tears becuase for the first time in my life I realized I was fat not chubby not big boned but fat and after that was history I just got bigger and bigger and through all my weight loss attempts through my life Ive always wanted to see this again and have a chance to change it and change my fate well here it is 16 years later and now I have that chance and I can tell  you I dont want to be a fat person for the rest of my life and Im praying I have to strength to finish this

 

Im nervous right now for two reasons one its the holiday season and thats horrible time of the year for keeping weight down and the fact Ive never lost more than fifty lbs at one time I am going to do my best and work around the holiday and keep up my exercise routine and I hope I dont gain before the first of the year and Im going to do everything that I can

 

On a positve note Im happy to say for the first time in my adult life Im a size 16 I cant believe how fast Im shrinking I had to go emergency shopping the other day for a new bra becuase all the ones I had were too big and I realized this evening the pants I bought three weeks  ago are starting to get too big its so awesome

 

I hope everyone has a great holiday Sorry that this entry is kinda depreesing this has been weighing on my mind on I wanted to get it off my chest

 

God Bless

Karen

    CONGRATULATIONS on this week's and the long-term loss, buddy!! And it's okay to be nervous heading into the holidays...me, too (I head out Wednesday for the family stress and eat-fest...got to be good.) And you know what? We'll do just fine!

    Congratulations on the 4 pounds!!!! That is AWESOME!!! You are doing so well my friend, and I know that you will continue to shrink. :) I know the holidays are rough, and I'm dreading them myself (well, the food not the fun :)) We can get through it together! Just take one day at a time, one meal at a time, one hour at a time. :)

    And how cool is it to reach such an amazing goal. For me it will be when I get under 200 because I can remember being 11 years old and 198-199 pounds realizing I was going to hit 200... How exciting for you!!! You are going to be smaller than you were at 13! How cool is that?!?!

    Hang in there hun, you're doing GREAT!!! :)

    Oh Karen, I am so excited for you!! I know how great it feels to get 50 lbs. off. I pray that the holidays don't get you down, just try to eat smaller portions then you can eat more of th things you like. Thats what I did when I was doing my weight loss. Hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving!!

Hello Everyone

 

As  you can tell from my status I made it to the finish line Im sooo proud of myself to be honest I wasnt sure if Ill do it I have lost weight before but I when I do well I  get complacent but I havent the lower I get the more Im motivated I get and Im loving the new person Im seeing in the mirror the last time I was here I was thirteen and I havent finished growing so I never got to see the woman I was supposed to be but Im starting to and I like it  Im soo close to final goal of 190 and with all the determination I have and all the wonderful support I have gotten so far I KNOW I will get there Thanksgiving is coming up and cant wait for my family to see me 

 

To my special friends ( you know who you are) who are at the start of thier journey Please let me tell you it may seem like a long road right now but youll get there If I can do this ANYONE can take hold of your dreams and DONT let go and you can make miracles happen

 

God Bless

    Wow, you have done so well! What a wonderful journal to read. I just want to amen what you have said & say WELL DONE & YOU CAN DO IT for your final goal. Just think about how good you feel now & how 190 will feel even better. Hopefully it will help with the complacency (which I understand...I'm there right now).
