I have written this post a million times in my head and yet now there are no words, or at least not the right noes. Today, November 13, 2014, I achieved one of my biggest and most coveted health and fitness goals. I have finally lost over 100lbs ... 104.1 to be exact.
When I stepped on the scale this morning I read it as 189.3 and truthfully was disappointed, I had gone up. Then it occurred to me ... that is not what the scale had read. I quickly stepped back on and stared at the number 183.9.
This has been a LONG time coming and the journey has not been without it's ups and downs. What amazes me most is that today ended up, of course being a day of celebration, but more so being one of reflection. I wanted to share my thoughts in a little more personal way than just words on a page, so here you go ... this is me, no script, no makeup, just me, 100lbs lighter and so much healthier!!
By the way ... I found it difficult myself to understand exactly what 100lbs looks like, so here are some photos to put it in perspective:
