Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy!!!

Super news, super loss. Reaching the 10% goal is a major accomplishment. What a great gift to
give yourself.

Hello everyone,

Congrats to all the losers and hang in there to all who are working at it and maintaining.

After a wonderful loss last week, I expected to gain a bit back this week, but to my surprise I
lost another 1.3 lbs. I am ecstatic, because that gets me back to my 10% weight loss. I have not
been this low since July 2002. That was my next mini-goal I had set for myself for the new year and
it arrived much earlier than expected. Even with the dreaded See's candy in the office this week
and all the wonderful baked goodies coming through and two Christmas parties, I still managed a
loss. Now to tackle this week...

I have two parties and three dining out with friends gatherings and two are in one day. I know I
will make it fine, I just have to continue on with what I have been doing. Like so many have said
here, it is the way of life we are changing for the better, if you only think of it as a diet,
you will never get it all off and KEEP it all off for the rest of your life. So the slow journey
is the way to go and keep it off.

Have a great week everyone,

Debbie
