New low- new decade-doing the dance of joy!

Carly · 06-14-2012, 03:50 PM

169.5!!!!! I haven't seen this number since before I got married!
You may all know that since May 12th I had been losing and gaining the same 2 pounds. I did not get as frustrated as I would have thought because I was truly reaping JUDDD magic in so many other ways, but it was discouraging. I have been a very good girl and even though the number on the scale is only one piece of the puzzle it helps to see it going down.

The weird thing is today is an UD and I never weigh in the evening (especially on an UD) but I came in today and walked to the scale. I almost stepped off without even looking. After the 3rd try I did the dance of joy! 170.0 was also the point at which I promised myself a new Pandora charm, so...someone's going shopping this weekend!

NoWeigh · 06-14-2012, 04:01 PM

Aw, that is so neat! Have a great time shopping!
Congratulations!!!

Joyjoy · 06-14-2012, 04:02 PM

Carly, I could scream with happiness for you.

Happy shopping. You deserve it.

kimberino · 06-14-2012, 04:14 PM

So happy for you Carly! You have been a real trooper it sounds like and I applaud you.

I just anticipated that I would get it sooner... But it was worth it.
