Re: A new milestone and a new picture

[Guest guest]

Hello Group- Recently with work changes and preparing for my dads 80th Birthday Party, I havent been posting much. This weekend something wild happened, I am now in the 140's, granted its 149, but when i hit 155 i was able to associate it with I have never been this low on the scales since I got pregnant with my daughter in 1982, however 149 is wild because I honestly do not remember when I last weighed 149...............I think it was pre- highschool, i remember being 183 or so at 16..................so this is pretty exciting for me, I am now just 5 pounds from my goal weight, if i get there i will be happier than i am now, but if i dont I am pretty much off the ground as it is ! Just wanted to share, and I posted a new picture of me and my dad on his 80th Birthday ! The luck of Colleen O'Connor-Garner was surely with me when on St s Day I weighed myself and saw the glorious 140's LOL ! I know its not truly

the luck of the irish, its hard work dedication and courage that is all getting us where we are going................ Thanks ** Colleen**chris lopez wrote: Yahoo! MailUse Photomail to share photos without annoying attachments.

Wow, Colleen - you look great! And what a wonderful St. s' Day

surprise! You got me thinking. . . and I believe the lowest weight I

can actually remember being is about 180 lbs. at about 15 years old.

pound and I'll be in the 160's! But still quite a bit

behind you. You rock!

Laurie- the farther down the scale i went the longer i was at each number, its hard, but i am sure things will move for you, it just takes time and its hard to be patient for and remember i had my surgery a long time before you had yours!

Thanks Colleen. Nope, for me, it's not really fun

anymore. I like seeing the numbers go down, but now

I'm always concerned that I'm as low as I'm going.

Always soemthing for me to stress about. lol My true

colors are showing. I'm a worrywart.

PS the magic moments are still fun, though!
