I can’t believe it but I have reached the 40 lb mark! I love that number! It is so big! I am ecstatic to have lost 40 lbs especially after the hard day I had yesterday at the Maryland Renaissance Festival with all the fried foods and dipped in chocolate cheesecake on a stick! But I only had very little and I guess it paid off!

Getting to this point makes me know that I will get to my goal. I don’t have any doubt in my mind any more that if I really want to be 150 lbs I will. It may take a long time but if I keep it up I know I will get there! I am SO excited to get to ONEDERLAND! I am only 6 lbs away from that! Today I am going to by a celebratory pair of pants and maybe a shirt or two. I’m swimming in my clothes. I don’t really want to invest in a lot because I plan to keep losing weight but I think I can handle some new jeans!

South Beach diet has been amazing and writing this blog has helped SO MUCH!
