I'm at an exciting place in my weight loss journey, a place like no other. It's a place where milestones are plentiful, and the air is thick with success.
I began my journey at 260 pounds, and my goal weight is 160, or a loss of 100 pounds. This morning wehn I weighed myself the scales sang out two-ten! I have lost fifty pounds! I am halfway there! Woohoo! Can you feel the excitement in the air?
There are so many other milestones and achievements that hover around this 20 pound zone for me. It seems like as soon as I reach a new one, there's another one right around the corner! What a big incentive to keep going! Please allow me the indulgence of sharing...
#1) 212 lbs...my last known weight, albeit my heaviest, post-Nathan/pre-Paula
#2) 210 lbs...the official fifty pounds lost/halfway mark
#3) 209 lbs...this will put me in the single digits. It's silly, but it's a milestone :)
#4) 199 lbs...under 200 pounds...need I say more?
#5) 192 lbs...my official pre-Paula weight
I am looking forward to reaching each of these five milestones, and moving past them to the next stages of my journey.

Milestones are so important! :) I think now that I've reached 150, I need to set some new smaller ones to help shed the last 20lbs! :) Where do you do the writers group? That sounds like such a wonderful thing! :)
Tracy, congratulations on the 50 pound mark! That is amazing. I'll be cheering you on for the next 50.
I love the photo on your blog. It's beautiful and fits so well with the title.
Your posts have been fun to read!
