Smile I'm so close!!!!

I weighed myself this morning, although I normally weigh on Fridays, just to see if last week's .5 loss was just water weight like I suspected...and I'd lost 3 pounds! Which unofficially puts me at 149, and therefore 9 pounds from goal. Which is so little...I just had to post something in here, hitting 150 before the end of May (my birthday) has been my goal for awhile now, and then I actually skipped the number. How funny. And exciting. I told myself if I reached that goal I could buy a swimsuit (If I missed I was getting a swimsuit anyway, but whatever was cheap and fit at walmart instead of something I wanted that cost more). and I think this is the one I'm going to get I'm not going to look like the model in the picture...but not really that far off either! Woot!

congrats at hitting a major milestone! It shouldn't take too long to knock off that last 9 pounds.

thanks guys Just had one of those 'its really happening' type moments. Even though I have been fairly steadily losing, it just always seemed like actually getting down to my goal would be sort of unattainable; worth trying, but not something I'd actually do. And all of a sudden it just hit me like a brick when I realized I was less than ten pounds from goal! I can get there. And I know it now.
