If no one believes in miracles, I am proof that they can happen. I just reviewed my journal to see how much I lost between Thanksgiving and New Year's Eve. I have never ever EVER lost weight between these holidays. In the 6 weigh-ins between November 26th and December 31st, I lost 19.4lbs!

I had 2 stressful weeks in there and while I stayed on my plan, my body gets whacked out and somehow the stress triggers a hormonal imbalance equaling a low weekly loss. But all in all, I am so excited with this number!

2013 is going to be my year and I am so excited. The holidays were my biggest fear and I not only got past them, I beat them! And to think I just wanted to break even! Through all of the temptations, I just kept thinking "it's not worth it, it's not worth it" and I think I actually believed myself.

So...miracles do in fact happen!

HUZZAH! That is FANTASTIC!! I buy 20 pounds of kitty litter and I really struggle carrying it around the store! Just think of all you lost! Congratulations! I agree, 2013 is definitely going to be your year!

(and mine too)



You deserve many delicious dancing things.

You've got big reason to celebrate! Many congrats on losing weight over the holidays!!!

WOW Congratulations to you This is definitely going to be your year (mine too) Keep up the great work.

Thank you all! I did the math like 3 times just to make sure I was adding it up right. This is my total incentive to succeed in the Valentine's challenge I joined to lose 20lbs in 6 1/2 weeks. It's a stretch but I think I can do it!

So happy today.

This is FANTASTIC! I am happy and proud for you. It is possible. Carry on. You are on your way.

Super yay!!!
