Default Freaking out. . .

As I've written before, I never set a number goal on my weight other than my original minimum goal of 135 (and I wasn't even sure my body would go that low).
Girls, I'm 121.6 pounds!!!!!!!!!! How the heck did that happen?!?!?! I went from the fat girl who ate spoonfuls of cookie dough long before the cookies came out of the oven, the girl who hated jogging a 10-minute mile, to the girl who can't really stomach sweets anymore and loves vegetables and can run a 5K in under 25 minutes on the treadmill!
I'm doing a little dance this morning, and I just thought I'd share!

Congrats, I going to do a little dance for you now... at the gym. I hope to be joining you at that weight (again *sigh*).

p.s. what time is it over there? It's only 11am here in the UK!

Congrats to you! It helps hear happy ending (although weight is never ending) stories and successful people tell how they accomplished their goals. It's also nice to hear that you learned to dislike sweets. My BIG downfal!!

Diana,
Since I surpassed my goal 13 pounds ago, I don't know what a goal is anymore!
I'm planning to try to stay under 125, giving me some room to jump with cycles, holidays, vacations, etc, with staying under 130 for life being my ultimate goal.
But again, those are just numbers; my real goal is to keep exercising and keep eating healthily for life.
