112lbs lost as of this morning. I am 175. I looked in the mirror and said girl you look so skinny. I will make it to my goal of 160 by my birthday in January. Rocking 50 with a new me. You see with perseverence you can do it. It takes work. It takes dedication. Did I slip up ever? Yes I did and spent six months of ice cream fetishing but then I got myself back on deck and feeling very proud of myself now. I have not weighed 160 for 31 years since I gave birth to my son. Gonna get a tatoo for my birthday that says " I learned to be in love with myself" !

So happy for you...what an accomplishment....."back flips for you".......

lol I love it!!!! I got tattoos also once i felt comfortable being half naked if front of a stranger. I got five butterflies down my back representing new life. And one smack dab on my buttcheek just for fun. A USDA CHOICE MEAT STAMP. LMBO.... Have fun with it you deserve it.

Cheryl, thank you so much for sharing your success with us! I bet you 50 will never feel soooo good

I hope next year by my 50th birthday I will be at goal so I can share my success too...

Congratulations again,

Congrats!! It does take a lot of perseverance and hard work. I laughed at the ice cream comment as I went through that too. You are doing great and can get to your goal.

That feeling of wow, is this really me. Hits so randomly sometimes.

BJL, I hope to get my first tattoo on my 50th next year! I am going to do an ankle bracelet with my daughter and granddaughters name on it. I will be scared because i heard they hurt around that area, but I am going to do it!! My gift to myself!

Pattygirl.....I had wanted one for years but i was too embarrassed they are painful mainly when they go over bone and if u do color the shading. Mine start over my shoulder blade and run down to my lower back. But i tell u what as i laid there on that table It was worth the pain i wasnt embarrassed i felt renewed....It was my gift to myself. Good luck ladies ya'll will be getting ur tatoos i'd love to see pics of them when u do.
