    Default I did it!!

    I have been working hard to get to the size I want to be, a size I feel comfortable with.


    Last Saturday I finally got to buy my first pair of size 6 shorts!! WOOHOO!! I was very happy to say the least. I still have 6 pounds to lose, but the inches are coming off. I am not giving up. I am going keep on moving.

    It may take me 6 more months to get the last 6 pounds off, but I am determined. I sure am feeling better about summer being here and wearing summer outfits and bathing suits.

    Good job Michelle! That was what I needed to hear! I have 9 lbs to lose to reach my goal, I should be a size 6 also. That's sounds so weird to say!! (Was a 12) I'm so happy for you and I know you must be on Cloud 9! I went to the water park last Friday and I felt great, not self conscious at all (well, maybe a little)LOL. My husband and I are taking the kids again tomorrow! Hang in there!

    YEA! You can do it!! I know you can! When you are so close there is no way to give up now!! I can't wait to read your post saying you made it to a size 6!!

    I know how you feel about going to a water park and feeling great. We went Sunday to one too and I wasn't trying to cover up. I was proud of what I had accomplished! You should be too!!
