BIG NEWS!!!

Ok, so I have big news.  I have reached my goal of losing 50lbs before my birthday!  Granted, I thought I weighed less before my official weigh in to start my weight loss, so technically I'm still 3lbs away from reaching my number on the scale goal.  Once I hit that, I'll gladly post my start weight and current weight.

I'm super proud of my accomplishments.  There were a number of people that thought I wouldn't last by eating this way.  Don't get me wrong, I've had plenty of days where I've just wanted something different.  Like a sandwich.  But then I think about how far I've come and where I was when I was able to eat a sandwich and I know I can't and won't go back there.

Here's a progress photo.  I won't call it a before/after picture because I'm not done losing weight.  I want to lose more and get healthier.



To me, that's a scary picture.  Not where I'm at now, but where I started.  I honestly can't believe I was that big.

Tory has hit his 60lb mark.  I joked yesterday that between the two of us, we've officially lost your average size teenager.  :)

I hope one day, my progress will inspire someone else.  I still feel like I have a long way to go, but I'll get there.  I know how to do it now and I can't wait to see what my end results will look like.
