I DID IT!!

i made it, i now weigh 2 lbs less than my husband!!! so now, i need to widen that gap, a lot!!! but in the almost 18 years that i have known him, this is the first time i have ever weighed less than him. loving this!!! so that was basically my first major personal goal to get to. i have another personal goal, and i will let you know when i get there. its getting closer every day!!

i do feel like i am changing, i actually dont mind looking at pics of myself that are taken now, as long as they are just of my face.

i also feel like some of my attitudes towards food are slowly changing. food is always going to be there, i dont feel like i have to eat the whole thing if its in front of me. its okay to throw some away, or give it to someone else. (sorry, michelle! ) before, i was definitely a full-fledged member of the "clean-your-plate" club. i am trying to not make my kids eat everything on their plate if they dont want to.

the great thing about this is that i dont feel hungry all the time, and i dont feel like i am missing out on anything, or depriving myself.
