Week 17 Update

Hooray! I have met my second goal, although not quite in my original time frame, of getting to 175 pounds. Had my weigh in and doctor check up tonight and was very pleased by my results. I am still not working due to the surgery but I have been walking almost everyday and its starting to show. Hopefully I can keep up the hard work and keep this weight loss thing going before Thanksgiving comes around. I think my next goal will be 160 by Thanksgiving, at which point I will probably start the adapting phase of my program. I also think at that point I will make a final decision about whether or not to go down to 150 pounds. I also got my necklace tonight. It is beautiful. I need to set up another non-food goal for when I get to 160 pounds. Not sure what that will be just yet, especially since I have been buying clothing all along since my size kept changing.
