::::: Doing Happy Dance ::::: (to the tune "Dance of the elephants"
You folks are probably getting tired of me, but I use the blog to remind me I'm working on Transition.
I've now lost 70 (that's SEVENTY!!!) pounds since January first. I've now reached 33% of the weight I HAVE to lose before hormones, before surgery. I just KNEW I was going to not have made it this week. My mom's 75th birthday, (awww I shoulda lost 75) was this weekend, and I had CHOCOLATE cake with frosting on Saturday. I was prepared to not have lost any this week, and I'm down another 5 pounds this week!!!
Arrgh... thump ROFLMAO
Err beck to the blog. This had been a bitchin' week (oops... yes I'm a California girl!) this last week. Including getting affirmation from my old boss (Maybe I get to go back to work as Beth!!!), and my best friend at UCSD. I expected a lukewarm reception, and EVERYONE was glad to see me. ::::happy dance::::
I get so down on myself, worrying that I'm not going to make my goal then something like last week comes along and I don't CARE how much I've got left, I'm going to make it!! And on time with my goals!!
Arrgh... thump
It's just so unusual for my life to be working out, barricades falling, doors opening. Yes there IS a GOD!
I've had a hard time finishing between Christmas and Hell because is such a mixed emotional bag that I call cathartic autobiography. Maybe I'll finish it in time for this year's Christmas contest. LOL
Anyway, I had to share. I'm so stinkin' cute.
Argh... thump ROFL

You are stinkin' cute

She was born for all the wrong reasons but grew up for all the right ones.

Keep Smiling!
It sounds as though you're doing really well on your preparations!
Let's see - 70 lb / 5 st in 9 weeks. Keep up the rate and by mid July (27 weeks total) you'll be at your target weight - which means you'll be half way there (14 weeks) in just over a month.
And as you've discovered, occasional indulgences shouldn't have much of an impact on your weight loss plan - but obviously if you had a slice of chocolate cake every day... :)
Getting acceptance from friends and colleagues is also a very positive step - their support should certainly ease away some of the rocks and boulders on the road ahead.
Well done - and keep up the good work! :)
As the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body, then only left-handers are in their right mind!
Whether or not there is a God
your life is in your hands, congrats on getting this far - keep going, focus on the target and keep going.
hugs,

Hey Beth,
I'm happy for you. I hope you get over that falling down thing before you hurt yourself.
