As of today, I have lost exactly 30 lbs! I'm no longer in the 60's. I started out June 8th at 287.2 and am now 257.2. 20 lbs to first goal of 50 lost and 70 lbs to total goal. It won't happen till next year but I'm thrilled at just the 30. I know I'll get there. I didn't get as much exercise in as I would have liked and that's why the scales were playing with the same half pound all week. Yesterday I cleaned the church and went shopping so I did a lot of walking, so the scales moved today. I need to keep moving. I went to Target, Michael's, and Office Max - all three stores next to each other - and walked to each one. Usually I go the lazy way and drive from the first to the third. ;) It's been much easier to do the walking lately. My best friend has seen how well I'm doing and has decided to join in with me. She's watching what she's eating and asked me to write out what I'm doing...foods, etc. She needs a new set of scales so she's not sure how much she weighs, but she says she has more energy and isn't feeling as sluggish. She's excited. And it's great that we can do this together. She's in a lot of pain and has seen how much better I can move around. A few months ago, cleaning the church was hard to do. I'd have to sit every ten mins or so. Now I can do almost all of it and not have to sit. It's terrific. She wants to be able to do that, too. Sorry I'm going on....I'm just excited. ;) Dee
