finally reached the big 4-0

Okay so Im not turning 40 quite yet, however I did reach a HUGE milestone in my weight loss journey. 40 lbs of fat finally off of my body.....Its amazing to find what a difference it can make in the amount of energy I have. I have been spending my days staying motivated and energized! I recently took on the battle of remodeling 2 of our bathrooms---the wallpaper may have won the battle but I have won the war!!

Okay so back to the weight loss. I am not keeping up with the gym like I should be, but am finding other ways to exercise. Scraping wallpaper for 3-4 hours a day is a start! However, I am trying to do other things like housework, moving furniture, walking around the neighborhood, and the Wii Fit!

I am still not really noticing much of a difference in clothes other than they fit a little bit better. There are always new things that I can wear out of my closet---or almost wear once I lose a little bit more--but then there are also things that are nowhere near ready to fit onto me.

All in all Im still on my way and doing fine! 10 more pounds to go to make my summer goal of a total of 50 lbs down by the time school goes back in session after Labor Day! Im going to stick with this and hopefully make it!
