Ladies, I experienced the worst week of my diet and had to do some tough talking to myself and decide what I really wanted LOL which I decided LOSE THE WEIGHT!!! I weighed in today for my monthly weigh in!!!!!! I lost 5 1/2 pounds for a total of 41.5 pounds in four months!!!! I have also lost 20.25 inches. Ladies when I fell off the diet wagon I had a choice and the choice was to pick myself up and keep going!!! If I had lost a 1/2 pound that would have been validation that I was right to continue and ignore the stumble. Success does come with determination and support. Thank you all for the positive emails when I fell off the diet wagon!!!

I like that persistence pays off. I never had it before it did not take a lot to get me upset and quit and forget I was trying to what??????????????????? lose weight. Now I dust myself off and keep on going. I have learned to quit when I am full and there is nothing wrong with leftovers. I am just grateful not to weigh over 300 pounds. I am giving myself until Dec. 2005 to meet my goal of 150 .
