CHANGES

Six months ago today I took the first step of my journey to a thinner, healthier me. I was nervous, scared, excited and skeptical.
  That was then, and this is now.. I have lost an amazing 87.5 pounds since that fall day. How Has my life changed??
I started to live my life instead of postpone it til "I was thin."
I have gone from a size 24 to a size 12
My body fat has gone from approximately 47 to 31.
I can sit in any booth in any restaurant and I fit.
My shoe size is smaller.
I exercise daily.
Yesterday I played in the volley ball game  faculty against students, and scored five points serving and faculty won.
I can get on a plane and not ask for an extension for the seatbelt.
Strangers are much nicer to me, I no longer get "the looks"
My husband keeps telling me I am beautiful.(thinking he is a little biased)
Michael Thurmond has asked me to be in his next informercial to be produced this summer(means an all expense paid trip to California, I live in New Hampshire)
I no longer go to the "fat clothes store"
I no longer buy my clothes to camouflage my fat..I buy them because I like the color and the style.
I no longer snore.
My cholestral was 385 it is now 129 and I am not taking meds.
I am in control of food, it no longer nor will it ever control me again.
I like ME inside and out...
I still have 36.5 pounds to lose to reach goal. The time has flown by, the journey has been delightful...
