I feel a little silly as I type this out today given my less-than-good-mood-I’m-a-crabass-and-I’m-sick-and-tired-of-all-this-stuff attitude in my last post. It’s Tuesday… my weigh-in day…and there was a 5.74 pound difference on the scale…IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION! I think my body was scared of my reaction if it didn’t show some improvement this week.

Body whispering to Scale “if you know what’s good for you you’ll come up with some low numbers. The lower…the better.”

So the official numbers as of today are: I am down 61.38 pounds (27.9 kilos) since July/August of last year. I have 38.62 pounds left to hit my goal. I would like to reach my goal my July/August of this year and it’s looking like it could be do-able.

I’ll have to admit I did a happy dance this morning. I happy danced in the bedroom after getting off the scale. I happy danced while I made my breakfast. I happy danced in the parking lot when I was dropping Marco off at work. I happy danced once I reached the office. I’ll probably happy dance a couple times more throughout the day. Just think of all the calories I'm burning just from being happy! (yuck that was a little sickening sweet)

Not this weekend but the following weekend we meet with the trainer to get weighed in, test out fitness levels and get new routines. Let’s hope my BMI % makes me happy dance once again!

WOW! What a great loss! Nothing like a good weigh-in to boost spirits!

This probably sounds totally weird, but I had a dream last night with you in it! lol. I was in a room w/ all of these women that were losing a ton of weight from a liquid diet and you were standing there and I wanted to just grab you and say NOOOOO! You're doing so good, don't give in to a fad now! But I couldn't talk. So strange...

As someone who has spent the last year SLOWLY losing weight I empathize with you! I am at ALMOST 50 pounds weight loss after having my child. There are days when I run to the store to hunt down cookie dough.(Thanks Nestle) But there are others when I can run six miles without stopping. I wish you continued success. I always remind myself that the weight I have lost is the weight I will never gain again.

Thanks for blogging.
