My original goal...well it's not so far off - Phentermine.com

craftymomma · July 3rd, 2008, 08:31 PM

I'm down to 167lbs from 216lbs. I thought that when I got to 160 I'd still be wanting to lose more. My goal was to fit back into my graduation dress and I felt like I'd need to be atleast 145 to do that. Well, I fit back into my PAGEANT DRESSES..size 12...my graduation dress is an 11 so I'm not far off! And I am happy, I want to lose the other 7 but if I don't, I'm happy with maintaining where I'm at.

Oh, remember those new dresses I got in WA? All too big now

I'm gonna get them taken up though cuz I'll be d a m n ed if I ain't wearing them out! haha

You can ALL do this, it is NOT something to only dream of...hard work and the WANT for it is all you really need. We all slip up, trust me, I've eaten like a horse the past two days but I know I will not always do that, right before TOM and then I'm good the rest of the month. If you KNOW you are not perfect and you WILL make mistakes, then you WILL pull through them and succeed.

I believe in you.

You look amazing! I am so proud of you! I agree with Raquel -- I miss you and your crazy threads! Don't be a stranger!

You look amazing. Truly inspirational too with all your talk about making mistakes n stuff. =) I sometimes find it hard to look inside for the things I need to know that I can do this but YOU and ALL the women and men on this forum really do inspire and help me to know that it is possible. I look at myself in the mirror still at my starting weight and think man, i'm never gonna get there. That's when I come here. I find that there is so much emotion and feeling and LOVE behind everything here. Nothing foney or fake. Just real people living their real lives. I know I wont get there without all of you to support me in ways that my hubby and my family just can't. Not because they don't want to but because they don't know what it's like to be this way and hate it. Thank you in advance for helping ME become ME. The me I was always meant to be.
