I DID IT!!! After so many months of trial and tribulation, I am at my goal weight of 140 pounds! I am so proud of myself! I am currently looking for a good spa in my area, so that I can get the massage I promised to reward myself with when I hit my goal! I also plan on doing some clothes shopping this week, and swimsuit shopping with my hubby on the weekend! I can't believe how far I have come, and I feel like I've completely transformed physically and mentally. I take pride in my appearance, and have a confidence that I've never had before! I know that I don't have a 'perfect' body (as if that even exists!) but I love my shape, I love all the amazing things my body is capable of, and most of all I love the person inside this body! I have learned so much about myself throughout this journey, and I think I have been a source of motivation to those around me. My hubby has supported me in living a healthier lifestyle, and it's paid off for him too (he's lost 10 pounds, and 'should' lose about 5 more to be a 'healthy' weight). While I still feel I have some improvements to be made (I want to tone up a little more) and I know that my relationship with my weight will require constant attention and vigilance, I feel that I have accomplished something really meaningful, and what a huge self-esteem boost it is to say I COMMITTED MYSELF TO SOMETHING CHALLENGING, AND IT ALMOST SEEMED IMPOSSIBLE AT TIMES, BUT I SUCCEEDED!!! GOOOOOO MEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
