Hey everyone. I've kinda had an extended leave of absence. Kinda like Staci....HI STACI!! Nice to see you back too!! I missed you when you left.

Anyway, I've been very busy, had some personal issues that were requiring alot of my time and energy. I had 3 week Dr. ordered break from my plan and that turned into 3 MONTHS. But, the good news is, I lost more weight during my break. I'm back on plan again, hardcore. And I've now lost a total of 103!! Yahoo! I still have between 60 and 70 to go. So, I'm no where near my goal, but not doing too bad since I started this adventure in June of 2006. I just may be to my goal by June. I PLANNED to be done already but I went and took that darn break. :(

Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well. I'm going to try to post a couple times a week if not more. I know how much it helps to be on this board. Sorry for such a long time away, and I hope everyone is doing great!

Hey you! Is that a picture of you and your hubby? Is it a wedding picture? Whatever it is, it's a great picture. You look awsome!

Anyway, thanks for your support. I'm glad we're both back and I can't WAIT to get to my goal and to see you get to yours!

lol. I know, I keep doing this huh? It's so hard to find time to do the board everyday! But it does help. Although I have been doing very well regardless. So, I may have dropped off the board, but I didn't fall off the wagon. Thank goodness! But I think of everyone everyday and wonder how everyone's doing.

And how is YOUR journey going Angela?

I am not losing weight so to speak but I have lost 12.5 in since Jan 8th so I am happy. I am making small goals each month and trying to only weigh/measure myself on the 1st of each month. Sometimes I cheat and weigh but so far I am sticking to it. I am moving more now that I am working and I think that is helping tremendously, but I find it hard to journal now that I am working, going to school, and taking care of a new home and kids. Blade staying sick all the time isnt' helping. Daycare jsut called and said he was sick again so DH had to take off and go get him while I am stuck here. He has him at the clinci now trying to make sure it isn't pneumonia again (had it 2 x by the 1st week of Feb since Dec 31) adn I am so frustrated with it that I don't kwno what to do. All in all things are going okay though. Job is slow and boring most days but it pays the bills and gives ds better insurance. Doesnt' seem to be making much of a difference with dr. though. Go figure.

I'm mainly 16's. I'm only 5'1, so although I'm down to 173, I'm still WAY overweight. I'm hoping to be in 14's by like April. Then I'll be happier about the clothes I buy for spring. And it's already spring clothes season here, but I refust to buy much until I'm in a 14. I'll have to pick up a couple things to get me by because obviously last years are too big. I was 103 pounds heavier back then. lol

Congrats on your wedding! I wish you all the best.

So, how long til you think you'll be in 14's?

It depends on where I shop.

hmmm My size goal? Good question. Well, my weight goal is 110. When I was 110 before I was like a 5/6. However, it's been MANY years. I'm older, have had 2 pregnancies. I'm probably build different. So, I'll probably be a size 7/8. I am very petite though. I am 5'1 with a small bone frame. So, it sounds pretty small, and it is, but it's cuz I'm supposed to be because I I'm short and small bone structure. It's been very hard on me being this overweight.

Anyway, I can't wait til we get there. You'll probably beat me cuz you're only like a size and half away! You GO!!
