A Special Day Indeed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, going to my WI this morning I had no expectations of what was to happen today. I felt great and knew that I did do everything right for my health and my weight loss journey. Standing in line at the scale, the people infront of me we leaving the scale, very disappointed and one woman was just about in tears. It was my turn. I got to the scale and asked our leader if the scale was jinxed today? She just smiled and said no, it won't be. I stepped on the scale and quite to my surprise, I was down -3.2 pounds. That in itself was fantastic news. Then I realized that I was now 100.2 pounds lighter and I was also below 200 pounds..... in ONDERLAND!

I was at the scales fairly early and my leader just let out this hoot..... YIPPEE! Everyone stopped and looked. Then I was just beaming. When the meeting started, Helen, our leader gave me my 100 pounds ring for my keychain. She was just soooo proud. Everyone cheered for me. I was just a little overwhelmed to say the least. 16 months ago, I never thought I would get this far, my self confidence was nil and I was so discusted with myself.

WW has taught me so much, first and foremost, to love myself. I am worth it. This took a lot of soul searching to realize it. Thinking positive. That is so important. Negativity draws the negative towards us. I work on the positive each and every day. I have learned to say NO THANK YOU. Some people's noses get a tad out of joint, but they will get over it and I do what I need to do, for me and only me. This is NOT a diet, but a lifestyle change and I have changed my lifestyle around 360 degrees.

I probably could write a novel after I get to goal, maintenance and then lifetime, but the novel will never end..... so my hope is to oneday, share my journey with others, possibly as a success story and then a WW leader. WW has changed my life.
