Half way to Goal Hell Yeah

B-Man · July 2, 2008

We as of today's visit to the Dr Office I am halfway to my goal. So I started at 330 pounds on January 11th, and today I was at 265. 65 pounds in just under six months. I actually went in for a small un-fill because I am leaving on a 14 day Alaskan trip and I wanted to be able to eat a little bit. I almost kissed the nurse who was weighing me in. Boy that would have been a awkward moment.

You know there have been many times I have felt like a complete failure, and so frustrated because I work so hard at times, and sabotage myself at others. Lately I especially felt like the scales were not moving at all. But when I got on the scale and realized I had lost 20 pounds since May 14th I finally felt like i really could succeed.

I reached halfway too a few days ago and it is an indescribable feeling. I had high hopes for the Band (and myself) when I started this journey, but now I think I finally believe that I will reach my goal.

Congrats!!! Looking forward to seeing you, and all of the New Year's Knockouts, at the finish line.

Congrats-- good job! I still have a ways to go to get to the half-way point, but I feel like it's in sight. Have fun on vacation. We went in early June and those "liquid calories" really are a hindrance, but in the past I would have gained 10 pounds and this year I pretty much stayed the same.
