Feeling great!

Today was a great day!  I got on the scale at work again today.  I am down 3 more lbs.  That made me so happy.  That is a total of 26 lbs. now in a little over a month and a half.  Then a good friend of mine took me downstairs to the gym and said she wanted to show me something.  We get down there and she hands me a 25lb. weight.  I grabbed it and could barely hold it because it was so heavy and I'm not that strong.  She looked at me and said, that's how much you have lost plus one more lb.  I just stood there and couldn't believe it.  To feel 25 lbs. in that capacity really made me realize just how much I had lost.  I can tell you that I never want those lbs. back!  Then after I got home this evening, I cooked supper and Chris and I went for a walk.  We walked a mile.  My goal right now is to exercise 3 times a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) so this was like an extra day of exercise for me.  It felt really good.  I am still amazed daily at how much better I am feeling (physically) even though I have only lost what seems like a small amount of weight (compared to what I need to loose).  I can't wait until Thursday when I see the nutritionist again.  Looking forward to seeing how much I have lost according to her (the real) scales!
