50 lbs GONE!

I was sitting here annoyed with my weigh in this morning because I know it could have been better, even though it was awesome. Then I realized that I now weigh over 50 lbs less than I did in April 2005. I started at 275 in April 2005 and weighed in at 224.5 this morning! That means that in 16 months I have lost 50 lbs despite the fact that I got pregnant and had a baby in there! That really puts things in perspective and I am so proud of myself for what I have accomplished :). I haven't been this skinny in a very long time, and I know I'm not on the road to regaining like I always have been in the past. I just wanted to celebrate and say woohoo! Plus, this means I'm over halfway there to my original goal of 100 lbs. Only 49.5 more lbs to go, and I will be skinnier than I have been since puberty :).

Awesome Staci! Sometims we get so caught up in our distant goals that we fail to appreciate all that we have to feel good about. You're on a real roll! Annie

You go! You've been able to lose that much weight while having a baby in the mean time?! I'm impressed! And hopeful - I'm working on bringing my weight down as well, and I'm hoping to have a baby soon, so I'm encouraged to hear a story of someone who managed to lose *and* become a mom.

Good job!

Hi There - Just wanted to wish you congrats on achieving a HUGE goal. It is a very big milestone in your weightloss efforts. Go out and do something nice to celebrate. Go get a pedicure, an outfit or take a nice warm relaxing bubble bath. Again Congrats!!

Take Care, Jena
