3, 2, 1... Ole' Ole' Ole' Ole'! Goal! Music Playing
Sooo strange being at goal, i sont know what to do wih myself. I suppose that with time it will become the norm. But it is so sureal to try and turn off the weightloss focus. It has shaped my life for soooo long. Just odd

U guys are all so great! Today is so strange, not worried about food, well other than upping my cals to maintain. I actually had a "horchaita" (sp?) to drink at lunch. Its a mexican drink i love but have not had in forever because of the sugar. I thought aw heck, I deserve a couple days of just not worrying at all just enjoying this moment. So while I may reset my goal to get me just under the bmi scale. For this week im just relaxing. :-)

Count Down To Goal 4....
I'm actually more concerned about not losing to much rather than regain. At least right now. I guess I'll just add a regular margarita night in . Hmm Audio aye?

Count Down To Goal 4....
I'm really not sure, I pretty much eat normal now, except I watch my carbs. I can increase my carbs but not to the detriment of protein intake. I have been trying to figure that one out. Guess I will be spending some time on the maintanance threads.

Goal count down 5.....
Kemo, I ran 5 miles yestarday. Lol. That's my longest distance so far. I have been in a crazy slow stall for a month and increased my runs to 3 and 5 miles and have started losing again. But these 5 lbs have been in the last 5 days. So I'm gonna run like crazy this week an hopefully see the last bit drop off. How are u doing?

Goal count down 5.....
Well, I am 175 today, 5lbs from goal. Down 98 lbs from surgery, and 137 from my heaviest. 5lbs, wow. It's so hard to believe!!!! I need to post some current pics. I'll try to do that with the count down. So close. This past week I have had 4 people email me and ask how I did it. So as in each case I am sitting down and sharing in depth hoping it will help their journey. GodSpeed
