I finally reached my first big goal, I'm down 101 pounds. I'm so excited. I wanted to hit this by my 6 month anniversary but missed it by a week and a half. Not too depressed about that cause I'm so happy to have made it. This 101 is since my first doctor's appointment about a year ago. I lost 24 pounds on the 6-month diet for insurance and put 6 of that back on at Christmas. Then I lost 16 on the 2 week pre-op. The other 67 has been thanks to the band and me. Yay! Gonna Celebrate a bit and while I do that work on my next goal - the halfway mark. That's only 4 pounds away. Gah, I so excited.

Help me think of something nice to do for myself please. I'm supposed to get the sweet set of pots and pans that I dying for but money is still a bit tight. I'm sure I'll get them but it will probably be a combination of reaching goal, birthday and Christmas. My mother wants to buy me new clothes but I just don't want to spend money on that when I know I'll be losing more soon. Any fun ideas?
