Lowest Weight in 5 Years!
 

Back in 2008, I had decided, after a scare of two realitives dying in a very short time span due to weight related complications, to lose some weight. I had went from 270+ to 250-something. By no means was this my lowest weight ever (161 would take that number) but it was a heck of a start...then I got pregnant, was put on bed rest for the term of my pregnangy, and my weight slipped back up. And kept creeping up. And up. And up. I topped at 293/294 in July 2012. EGADS! :o

Today, I am happy and proud to announce that I am at 250.5! And still moving on down at that! :dance:

Hubby and I plan to try for baby number two, but we both agree I MUST be at a healthier weight before we attempt that. We will NOT risk my health, or that of a child, again (#1 was very premature.) Here's to one step closer! Next mini goal is only 25 pounds away...and I am but a mere 35 pounds away before we can consider #2. YEAH! :love:

Woohoo! Congrats on reaching that mini-goal and good luck with the next one!

:woohoo::woohoo::cheer3::cheer3::woohoo::woohoo: :cheer3::cheer3:

That is very exciting. Keep up the momentum. It is great to hear about your success.

Congrats zoesmom!!! Such a wonderful feeling to meet a mini-goal!! Now onto the next one!! Can't wait to read about your continued successes!!

Congratulations! I know the prospect of a new little one is probably very motivating!

Congrats and good luck!
