Oh yeahhhhhh!!  **Doing happy dance**  I lost two pounds!  TWO!  Woohoo, two!
.
I can’t ever recall being this happy about losing a measly two pounds before.  Perhaps it has something to do with how EASILY I put on 40 pounds in the past year - most of it within the past six months?  Yeah I opened my FitDay account and my last weigh-in said like 255 (August) and here I am five months later with a start weight of 285 - YIKES!  An average gain of 6 pounds per month - that is so not right! 
.
Okay so the doctor was messing around with my meds and sent me from hyperthyroid right into hypothyroid - the metabolism equivalent of snail’s pace for weight loss.  That said, I was certain it was going to be SOOOOOOOO difficult to take weight off since it was so damn easy to put it on.

This is not going to be difficult.  It’s not going to be horrible.  It’s going to be SOOOO AWESOME!

I wrote to my sister today and offered her a deal.  I will lose 100 lbs in 2008 if she’ll quit smoking.  I also told her that I intend to lose 100 lbs anyway but geez what a motivation THAT would be, if my sister would quit smoking.  She’s 57 years old and has smoked nonstop for like 40 years.  I doubt she’ll take me up on it but at least maybe I’ll get her thinking.  Maybe.

TWO POUNDS, TWO POUNDS, TWO POUNDS!
