Crazy...just Crazy!!!

Hello again!

So September is here, summer is all but gone, and life is amazing! I hit my "goal" weight about two months ago. I don't remember the exact day, which seems kinda crazy. After dreaming about it for years, you would thing I would have hired someone to write it in the sky! Nope. Just another day. Actually, I think I jumped right past it. LOL!

I am currently down 125 pounds! CRAZY! I know!!! I have not seen this number on the scale, since...well, very early High School, maybe Middle School! I didn't think it was even an option at this point in my life, but here I am!

Is it hard to live here, at goal? NO, not at all! Life is amazing! I have so much energy and zest for life. I am such a happier person...I catch myself smiling for no reason at all! My kids love having a fun Mom who is not afraid to get up and dance with them in public, take them anywhere and everywhere because I don't feel like people are looking at me and I can be a good role model for what I want my kids to have in their lives!

I eat well, and have not had a "pb" in prob a month! That is good news for me, because I know my band is not too tight. I tend not to eat much in the morning, eat something small for lunch and them a good dinner. Usually I have a snack at night, too. Whatever I am doing, it working well and that makes me a happy camper!

I am eating a lot of fish right now, almost as if I crave it. I do use tarter sauce and it usually is breaded, but I don't eat anything else with it. I figure the breading is my carbs and the tarter sauce is my fat. This has helped me get my protein in, and in doing so, my hair loss has really slowed down!

This post is turning into a novel, but I wanted to document one last thing! This weekend we went home to Toledo for the first time in a while. While we were there, I head CRAZY things like I was "too thin" and that my face was looking sunken' in. Oh, and that I was looking old, too. LOL. Can you believe it? Too thin? I don't think so. Now, do I want to lose anymore weight? Nope, I want to just maintain my weight loss and eventually have PS to remove the extra skin. I know this will cause me to lose on the scale, but it is just deflated skin, so my "real body" won't change much.

Crazy stuff to think about!
