Goal and Then Some

Postby kristinburdine » October 31st, 2007, 9:35 am

It's been a LONG time since I posted, so I just wanted to give everyone a shout. I'm so happy to say that I have lost 90 pounds since February 12th of this year. I started at 226.5 pounds and now weigh 136 - size 18 to size 8. I feel WONDERFUL !!! This is the best program there is, bar none. If you're on it, stick with it. If not, pick up the phone and go for it. It's one of the best decisions I've ever made. I'll post some before and after pictures as soon as I figure out how to do it. :D I also want to say "thank you" to Becky for being such a great support !!

That is really wonderful Kristin! I just read back over some of your old posts and read how some of your co-workers were skeptical. I guess they are believers now, huh? Good for you!!

Assuming 136 is your goal, have you started maintenance yet? How is that going for you?

Thanks for posting your progress and more proof that this plan works!

Congratulations to you!!! I started 2 days before you did and have lost 26# *less* than you have so I am clapping loudly for your achievement---you've done an awesome job of getting the weight off. I hope you'll share some photos, if you took them during your weight loss.

Congratulations again for reaching your goal!!!

Mary I was scrolling up to read the posts and my eyes saw the pumpkin pie and my whole stomach throbbed! I know what I need to stay away from! Since my husband won't be baking one I'm pretty safe.

Sorry the pumpkin pies prompted an unsettling response, Biki, and anyone else that had a similar reaction. :oops: I merely wanted my ticker to reflect the upcoming TG holiday ... and juxtaposed with the scale it's a subtle reminder that I am in maintenance. I certainly don't want any of those pesky pounds returning! :lol:

Still, my daughter makes a mean pumpkin pie so I WILL have a small piece! :bib: :lol:
