100 Days on BuddySlim!!!!

WOW!! I just realized that I have been dieting and using BuddySlim for 100 days today! I have see so many changes in myself over the last 100 days. Not only have I lost weight, but I have become more confident! I am down to a size 22 and I can’t remember when I was that size before.  I think the most important change I have seen is that when I look in the mirror I no longer see that girl with so many hurts and so many excuses to hide behind my weight.

For the first time in my life I have been following my diet and working hard for more than just a week or two. I haven’t given up and I have continued to loose something almost every week since I started. This time is different, I have made that life change, the one I have always said I would make and didn’t. This time I managed to make it and I have never felt better.

I owe a lot of my strength to all of you on BuddySlim!  When I feel down or when I want to grab some food, I come on here and read all of your messages or see all of your pictures you send me and I forget about the food. I spend sometimes the late hours of the evening reading your blogs to give me the strength that I need to get through a rough day. And when I reach a goal or have a great weigh in the first place I want to run to is my computer to share my good news with all my new friends.

Speaking of accomplishments… on a side note, my husband and I went out to lunch today at Taco Bell (not the best choice I know, but my hubby has been asking for 100 days to go there and I finally said okay lets go) well we sat in a booth, and I normally have trouble fitting comfortably in a booth because of my size. Well today I had a lot of extra room in the booth. I was even able to bring my leg up under me and sit comfy and still have room. I was so excited! No more death traps of a booth!!!! :)  Just had to share this news, it’s exciting to me. LOL

Love you all! Thank for all your support!

    YEAHHHH! I know its not good but yes T-Bell is definitely one of the good/bad places I love to eat. lol Its a once in awhile treat. You can eat there though and not load up on the calories and fat. Go to tacobell.com and you can find out all the facts before you make a trip. It really helps you to make better choices while there.

    I am very proud of you. Its hard to stay on track when you get stressed but this time….girl you definitely have it going on! :)
