Hi everyone! Well it has been 5 days and I have been soda free, caffeine free, and tv dinner free. I know it is impossible to kick all processed food to the curb, but I would say that I have stopped eating 98% of what I used to. I have gotten to the near bottom of the 160's and that is major motivation. I have also discovered that it feels really empowering to say, "No" to the hungries and urges to binge. Somebody once said, "Nothing tastes as good as thin feels." Well they were right. In the past I always made the wrong choices. Well I am done with that. Only 6.8 pounds to go until my reward. I cant wait. I might just cry at the salon....Back in November I went to L.L. Bean with my parents. I tried on a lot of different things and they all fit! All I could do was stare in the mirror. My parents asked why I was so quiet and not smiling. I was smiling on the inside because if I tried to talk I would have ended up crying, or screaming, "Woohoo!" so loudly they would have called security. I have NEVER had a good shopping experience. Nothing ever fit that I wanted. Clothes I could wear were huge and looked like a Moo-Moo. Two years ago I went to L.L. Bean and was stuffed into a size 20 pants. (And the zipper broke). So this recent trip ment everything to me. Gone are the days of the size 20's and extra larges. 150's here I come!
Had a great time chatting with Susie last night. Thanks Susie for helping me keep my mind off my stomach and giving me a reason to smile today!!

Great job Carrie!!! Wow bottom of the 160's, that is awesome! You will definately deserve that reward.

I had a really good time chatting last night too!! It's so awesome to be able to talk to somebody that understands what you're going through. Hopefully we can chat again soon and more people will join us!!!
