TODAY'S WI - 2 LBS DOWN... 3/10ths TO GO! ARG!!!

LOL!! :o)

So darned close I can just scream!!! :o) I weighed in today w/ my leader & there it was... 200.2... only .3 pounds away from ONDERLAND! Dang it!! :o) My leader says "run to the bathroom really quickly & then come right back"... so I did... but I knew it was a lost cause, since I had just gone before leaving home! Nope, not even a trickle. :o)

Oh well... it's okay, I guess! LOL. I had kept off my home scale since Wednesday morning, I just didn't want to know... I knew it was close, though. Darned cookies yesterday. :o)

This morning when I got up, I measured myself... I wanted to prove to myself that I was making progress, even if the scale didn't say so... & I had!!! Yeah!

Since mid December when I measured last & was 204 lbs...
1.5" off my hips (9.5" total since 1/03)
3" off my waist (10" total since 1/03)
3" off my chest
2" off my bust (can you say deflate??)
Everything else has pretty much stayed the same... but it is just cool to see those numbers, huh?

I'm wearing a size XL in regular sized shirts, rather than Women's sizes. AND I'm wearing fitted clothes, rather than baggy ones. I feel SUPER feminine & just love that!!

The size 18 jeans that were too tight on me @ Christmas are now getting baggy.

& I feel FABULOUS...healthy, confident, proud, etc...

So who gives a rip about ONDERLAND, right???

Okay, I guess I do. :o) It's such an amazing milestone to reach for me... REALLY. It's been since probably 1990 since I've seen ONDERLAND... that's a long time ago.

Anyways, guys... THANK YOU so much for all of your support & encouragement... I love being part of such an incredible group of people... you are my family & I cherish you all.

Okay... that's enough gushing... I need to save my emotional breakdown for when I actually DO reach ONDERLAND!! For now, I'll just be happy w/ having ONDERLUST! :o)
