I'm excited to have a blog up and running again.  I can already tell a difference with my mind-set and staying focused.  My blog makes me happy.

I weighed in at 278.6 pounds today.  That's a loss of 152.6 since October, 2011.
This also marks 20.6 pounds away from being the weight I was when I married my first husband in 1990, 70.6 pounds away from when I graduated high school in 1987, and 78.7 pounds away from Onederland.  I am so close I can't stand it!
