On my way home from work I went to weigh in at Weight Watchers because it is Wednesday and I want to stay on track :)
I was super excited to finally say hello to the 170s and good bye forever to the 180s and be down 3.6 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So 35 weeks on Weight Watchers and I am almost at my first huge goal of 75 pounds gone!!!!
BUT BUT BUT I am VERY HAPPY BECAUSE................
I AM NO LONGER OBESE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My BMI began at 42 yes a whoop whopping morbidly obese 42 and now I stand before everyone today and can say I honestly took obesity and threw it out the window forever! I kicked obestiy's ass and I took no prisoners :)
I am eccstatic, I am over joyed, I am over the moon happy!
So today I am celebrating and enjoying how truly amazing I am. I have achieved things these last 8 months that I never dreamed possible. I have improved my health, and ensured that I will be here and stronger and a better mom and to me there is no greater achievement. I am living proof that with hard work, determination, diligence, and persistence you can do ANYTHING you set your mind to.
Thank you to everyone who has pushed me, helped me, supported me, and picked me up when I felt I was falling along the way. It is with the support of my friends, family and my virtual health and fitness bloggers who have helped me achieve this great goal and who will keep pushing me to go farther :)
