Susan's Weight Loss Journey

On January 26, 2006, I made my goal weight of 150. It took me 373 days. It's the first time in many, many, many attempts at dieting over the last 30 or so years, but I finally did it.

I'm not quite ready to figure out maintenance. Since that 150 is on MY scale, I want to get to 150 on my doctor's scale now. There's about a 6 pound difference - of course, when I go to the doctor, I usually have clothes on and haven't just gotten up, etc. etc., but still - 6 more pounds would make it a nice round 100 pounds lost. We'll see though. I'm not stressing about it. I'm pretty darn happy where I am.

The picture on the right is me with two pairs of jeans - the size 4 ones I just got and the size 20W ones I saved from after I started. The sad part is, I thought I looked so good in those size 20W's! They were 2 sizes smaller than the ones I had before that!! (Too bad I didn't save THOSE!)
