The Big 5 - 0

I FINALLY DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FIFTY POUNDS

I knew today would be the day. After walking 9 miles in two days how could it not.  I was excited to get out of bed this morning. (Most days I'm hitting the snooze button 3 or 4 times)

I stepped on that scale with all hopes that I would see FIFTY pounds gone.  I cannot put into words the elation I felt.

FIFTY pounds, that is half way to my goal. To think that in January I started with a goal of 100 pounds to lose and I've lost half of it already, well, that just seems so much more within my reach now.

FIFTY pounds, that's FIFTY boxes of butter, that's 10 bags of flour, and it's a small child. 

I'm ready to bring on the next FIFTY!
