I hit 30# today!

[Catshrink]

This is since the end of April so that works out to about 5# a month. Some months were 3, some were 9, but hey -- 30 freaking pounds!

I hefted a bucket of kitty litter that weighs 35# and thought, my God this is heavy! I used to have this much extra weight -- how did I carry it?

45 more.

1. WTG, Catshrink!!

30# is great! I do that too. I'll lift something and think, gosh, this is how much I've lost? It really gives you some perspective.

5. The perspective is reassuring.

It seems like it's taken a long time to lose it. But, hey, it's off. I just need to keep going.

6. Thank you!

I wish I lose it faster but I'm staying healthy too.

3. Absolutely Wonderful.

I know how hard some days can be. You're doing Great!

7. No kidding!

One thing that helped on those days when I MUST HAVE CHOCOLATE NOW is Applebee's shooters. A little shot, just enough.

4. That's great!

My weight loss has hit a snag... I injured my knee back in early September and have gained 5 pounds from the 38 I lost. I am hoping I can get back to my regular exercise program soon before I gain any more back.

8. I don't like exercise.

I've never been very good at it. Last night I took one of my dogs out for a short job. Bad move. Bratwurst likes to pee on every other bush so he kept stopping. Tonight, after the debate, I'll try it with Louie. He's a little slower and only pees in his own yard.
