40 Pounds- GONE!

This week I crossed another threshold in my weight loss journey... 40 pounds! I've lost about two of my baby Caleigh Bugs. I remember when I lost my first 20, I was carrying her around outside and wasn't wearing any shoes. The rocks hurt my feet, and I remember telling myself, "Can you believe you used to carry around this extra weight ALL THE TIME?!?"

Now that this weight is gone, indulge me while I list some of the other things that are gone....

1. Chins 2 and 3 have gone missing. That's right, I only have one now!
2. Back pain! I have three herniated disks in my lower back, and now they rarely bother me. Occasionally, I'll get a bit stiff, but the pain is GONE!
3. 2 and 3xl shirts. I wear XL in "fitted" shirts and regular, plain jane L in tee shirts.
4. The "2" at the beginning of my weight. It's always a "1" now, and hopefully it always will be :)

Here's to the next 40!
