I am coming up to the one year anniversary of reaching my weight loss goal. One year of not having to wish, resolve, pray or plead “Please Lord, help me loose these extra pounds.” It is a pretty awesome feeling when I take the time to think about it. But I mostly use my time in thinking about how to stay at goal. Perhaps I should mention I have been here two previous times in my life. This time is different for a lot of reasons. The most important being, I still attend or watch a meeting weekly (usually both), I still stop eating when I feel satisfied, I still plan what I am going to eat and I still weigh myself everyday. I know daily weighing doesn’t work for everyone but that’s what works for me. I try new foods and new recipes all the time. I have built up a support system in my family, my friends and my colleagues. Some come to me for help, that is so cool and really rewarding. This is not a diet that has an end, I consider this the way I eat. If I start to struggle, I watch an archived meeting after talking about it with my sis. My favorites are the early ones, like Draw Your Line In The Sand and This is for L-I-F-E! It still is a challenge for me to keep on keepin’ on , maybe that’s why I can stay motivated most of the time.
My three goals for the summer are 1. get to the gym, 2. get rid of all the clothes that no longer fit, 3. remember to take multi-vitamins daily. Did you make your summer goals yet? It’s not too late and it really helps to put them in writing.
"Though you can't go back and make a brand new start, you can start now and make a brand new ending."
Keep on keepin’ on. 24/100%

You look great and I can say that Kim's book has been a total inspiration for me- I have never before felt this good and as empowered to take control of my own out of control body! I started "living" about 2 and a half months ago and I am down 40 lbs!! I can't believe it so far, but I am now able to eat to live instead of living to eat!! I just wanted to let people know of an awesome product I recently found- they're called COCOPOPS and they, so far, are available at Wegman's grocery stores. They are a lot like rice cakes only much better tasting. They kind of taste like cheerios if you eat them plain but they are about 5 inch rounds and they are only 16 calories a piece. I have been kind of bored with my snacks and these things offer endless options to spice those snacks up! Plop a teaspoon of peanut butter on them or fat free cream cheese or whatever you like!! Two of them with tuna salad on them could easily be my lunch with calories left over for a yogurt or fruit or something else! I don't know if this is the forum for new ideas, but I wanted to share this so others can enjoy as well!! Keep on inspiring people! You have no idea how much this motivates people to just keep going!!!

Wow! I saw your pictures, Pat. Maybe I really can do this! I hit goal once after losing 80 lbs and that was 100 lbs ago! I'm so discouraged, but if you can lose it AND keep it off, maybe I can, too.
