I Did It! I Did It! I Freakin Dit It!

OK! I can officially say that I have reached 100lbs as of this morning. It may be by only a few tenths but I am claiming this victory.

I am so excited this was my real first goal and I have met that goal in 7 months. Must say that it is getting harder to lose weight now but I must remember how far I have come.

I have a funny story surrounding this loss. On Saturday night, I was having really bad shoulder pain. This pain has been off and on since surgery and can get excrutiating. Well, I tried Tylenol and Motrin and nothing was killing the pain so I decided to take my left over pain medication (OxyCodone) for it. I took the recommended dosage of 2 tsp. and went off into la-la land for the night. However, I woke up Sunday morning really not feeling well at all. I felt sick to my stomach and was breaking out with cold sweats and sleeping at the drop of a pin. It took me until 3pm to feel better and I couldn't figure out why I felt so bad.

I was talking with my Mom about it and she said it sounded like I had a hang over. I chuckled because I have never been hung over in my life and wouldn't know it if it smacked me in the face. We further discussed that I probably overdosed on OxyCodone since I was given that prescription when I weighed 100lbs more. So the motto of the story is if you have prescription pain meds that were prescribed at your higher weight you might want to lower the dosage so you don't feel as cruddy as I did on Sunday. LOL

Anyways, I am elated at the 100bls officially and now on to my next goal of 220lbs....the infamous Wedding Weight of 18 years ago.

Love to all,

Cindy

Way to go girl!!!!!! I'm so excited for you!!!! What an accomplishment!!

Way to go Cindy!

I will cross that line this week, I predict.

I bet it sure feels good to finally be past that hurdle.

For me it will mean that I will FINALLY be back down to the 2-hundreds!

I am so happy for you. Now lets focus on both knockin' off the rest of the weight that we have!

You got it buddy! Are we in for another race or what? LOL! I have not expectations now. I met the one goal I had set from the beginning. Now I just want to get to 220. After that it is bonus poundage.

Have a good one.

Cindy

Foofy,

I was married on October 20th, 1990. I am going to let you win this race...you deserve it! LOL

Cindy

Okay. My 18th anniversary is August 18, so I'll get to 220 by then. Then you have two more months to get to 220. We'll both get to celebrate our 18th anniversarys at our wedding weights. Yay!
