I DID IT!

I finally did it! I have finally started losing weight and feel so much better about myself! Woo Hoo! After months and months of working at this for some strange reason it is finally coming off. The funny thing is I am doing the exact same thing I did back in October. I guess that I am working out a bit more since I got a treadmill for Christmas. I am doing more aeorobic exercising but that is about all. Well whatever has happened I am so happy! I have since hit a plateau but am still working at it. I am down in all of my clothes. I did save a few smaller sizes from before hoping someday I would get back in to them, but I think rob is going to have to let me go on a shopping spree. My closet is empty now of all my big clothes. I am not going to hang on to them in case I gain it back. I won't gain it back ever again! So if there is anyone that knows someone who could use big clothes I have a ton of shirts, capris, and long shorts. I am hoping someone will know someone because we all know how hard it is to find shorts long enough! I should try to take some pictures and do a before and after only I have not yet hit my finished look yet....will I ever?

Rachel! I am so jealous! You never said you were losing weight. I am so happy for you! YEAH! What a relief to hear that someone did, I will do the happy dance for you! I am still waiting (patiently) for my body to just one day get sick of it and rid of it by itself. (If that makes sence) BUt for now I just wake up, look in the mirror and say to myself "Rats, I am still not skinny!" I got a treadmil for Xmas too, and I don't dare use for fear I will disturb the nice layer of collected dust on it!

Good Job! Oh and you inspired me for a blog post idea... trimming trees. Isn't it nice to have it done? Take Care!

Hey Rach,
I know you probably figured we weren't coming, but Butch had to teach this Sunday in Elder's Quorum and it was his first lesson so he couldn't get a sub. Also Jaymi came and will be here a few days until they go to Nebraska. But I am still trying to get down there and see you!
