60 Pounds Gone -- I'm Excited!

I've had a lot (and I do mean a lot) of ups and downs on my weight loss journey. Seems like sometimes the scales went up and my enthusiasm went down!

But, I'me happy to report that I have lost 60 pounds since June 15, 2007. Now maybe that seems like a lot, or doesn't seem like much. But they're gone and I don't want them back!

Sure, I'd absolutely love to have lost the 60 pounds in 60 days (as some ads would have you think). The real world just doesn't work that way. The weight comes off, sometimes 2 and 3 pounds a week...and some weeks the scale doesn't move.

Actually, it's good if the scales just don't move up!

So, I've done all this with a combination of 3 days diets (great for jump-starting when you're in the doldrums), NutriSystem and NuFit.

In the last few months, it's been mostly NutriSystem, with some NuStart supplements from the NuFit plan. Yes, NutriSystem, and I have my NutriBears to prove it! I'll tell you, those little bears sometime keep me on track -- they're so darn cute!

What's a NutriBear? You get them after every 10 pounds you lose, plus one extra when you reach your goal weight.

Hey, losing weight is hard. If it were easy, I'd have been thin a long, long time ago. But I;m happy to see that the weight is coming off. I'm looking forward to being at my goal weight this time next year.
