Going Going...Nearly GONE!
Here I am at Disneyland (obviously) with my niece and nephew. I am below
goal and wearing sizes 2 or 4. I never EVER dreamed I'd wear a size 2 on anything but my big toe! My shorts here are size
4, but are actually quite loose on me.
I'm weighing 113 and feeling great. I am working on getting between 115 and 120. Yes, that means
I'm gaining weight on purpose. I left the hospital at 106, so 113 is a good thing right now! I'm gaining with the same careful
planning that I used while losing. Even though I've made and passed goal, I still journal every day, still eat within points
every day, and still make positive food choices every day. I exercise 90 minutes a day most days and feel really good.
All this healthy living paid off in spades during and after a recent series of three surgeries.
While they certainly were not what one would consider fun, I did heal quite quickly. (I had a whipple procedure,
aka the "Grandaddy of all Surgeries" so it was a big deal, but only a few months later I'm feeling in the pink.)

I really have to thank all of the people who are supporting me in my efforts.
First and most supportive would be my husband, Roy and my sister, Tammy. They have been with me every step of the way.
He's lost 60 pounds during the process. (Tammy has always looked hot and never had any pounds to lose because already knew
how to make healthy choices for her body.)
In addition my friend Jen, a harried and hagard Vet (aka "real doctor")
student in Michigan has always been a great IM supporter. She is doing awesome herself on WW and somehow managing to do it
WHILE going through her third year of vet school!
Above is my Christmas outfit, size 5/6. Since starting to work out with
weights and 60 minutes of cardio a day I've really noticed a tightening of all the scary bits. I still have issues in the
ab area, but I just have to keep working at it. Below is the outfit with a jacket called a "Reefer Jacket." Interesting name.
I checked the pockets and nope, didn't find any.
