Good Saturday evening!
I think I finally figured out why people like to write Blogs...the reason I want to write now is that I have found there are things that I would like to talk about but I don't know other people who want to talk about the same thing.
Let me give you an example:
Over the course of the past 5 years, I have lost 73 pounds. From January 2013 till about August, I lost around 60 pounds. I kept that off until early 2015. I started working an office job, which I never did before, and I gained about 20 pounds back. In the summer of 2017, I got partly back on track and lost 5 pounds, but just couldn't get the rest off. My goal weight at that time was 160...and I was hovering around 175 - 178. Finally sometime late last Fall, with some encouragement from my DH, I started losing again and since then have reached my 160 pound goal...reset my goal to 155, reached that goal...reset my goal to 150...and I reached that goal last week! Now my goal is what ultimate goal is.. 147 pounds! I don't know if I will ever get there, but if I can stay at 150, I will be thrilled...I was thinking I wouldn't even make it to 160...and here I am...10 pounds less than that!
This is the problem with talking about this. The only people I know, with the exception of my DH, either don't have and never have had as serious a weight problem as I have, or they still have a weight problem and they really don't seem to like to hear about my success. Perhaps it is the way that I approach it, but at least I finally remembered that I have a place to come and share my thoughts.
Have a blessed evening!
