Talking I Did It! I Reached My Goal Weight!

Seven months later I have reached my goal weight of 130lbs and I feel ecstatic!

Now comes the truly difficult part: keeping those pounds off. I will not slack off on my exercise, as that seems to be the key for me. When I allowed myself to slack off before, those pounds piled on. I also know that I must continue to watch my portion sizes in this super-sized world and limit junk food as much as possible.

Anyway, I just thought I'd share here because I am bursting with happiness!

Cheers,

~Silvervixen

well done, you! I'm sure you feel GREAT! Look what you just did! And there were probably times during your journey where you felt just like me..."I can't do it, it's too hard, it isn't working, etc." What an inspiration. Congrats!

by the way, I'm TOTALLY envious!

Congrats! I'm with you, I wonder how hard it will be to keep it off. If it makes you feel better, I've done this a few times. Each time I was able to keep it off until I got PREGNANT. I need extra birth control this time. LOL.
