I lost what??? 80 pounds???? Are you kidding.
The past couple of days I have been walking around with such ease that I have felt puzzled. Where I huffed and puffed going up and down to the lake in May, I hardly take a deep breath. Today I attended a job-related "appreciation" dinner in Glenwood Springs. Pants that were tight on me a month ago felt baggy and I kept catching the cuff on my heels. What? What is going on? So after I had stuffed my face with the best food I've had in awhile, I went off to buy a set of scales. Low and behold, I have lost 45 pounds since I began this job in May 2012. What??? I am still surprised. I am now within 20 pounds of my ideal weigh and feel better than I have felt in 28 years. I am highly motivated now. I will reach my goal weight before the end of this fall. I will I will I will.
Who is this lighter, healthier person? I will have to get to know myself all over again. I am so psyched. What a thrilling adventure this is.
