Down 30 lbs as of yesterday, 15 to goal! Mostly just posting because I wanted to show off the 30 avatar.

But I gotta tell you, I was walking on air yesterday to have hit that 30 lb mark. I'm celebrating the 5 lb increments and very excited for the next one because 35 lbs is the weight of the dog food bags we buy and I can totally relate to exactly how much weight 35 lbs is. I can hardly lift it, how did I carry that around on my body all this time??? Gonna be fun to lift one and think "I lost this much!"

Awesome! keep going, you are doing great! show that avatar off with pride! Its a good day for you too (I surpassed my mini goal today too ).

I love how you relate it to something you carry. I often wonder if while lifting 20# weights if I would want to carry that much more around again that I was for so long. CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great job! I think the 5lb increments is a good idea. It's attainable but still significant. It's amazing when you realize how much 5lbs is to carry around on your body all the time, and now you're down 30!

Congratulations!! you should be very proud! Keep it up!

Great job! You should be walking on air! : )
