Exactly 1 year ago today I joined WW at 149.4 pounds. .6 away from the max that I could weigh and still be considered “healthy” by WW standards (possibly others too but I only know the WW ones). 8 months after joining I made Lifetime and had lost roughly 15 pounds depending upon the day. I met my goal of fitting into my size 6s again and on a good day I can even wear a 4 again! 
When I started WW I was a nice and plump size 8 (not saying size 8 is a plump size, but I sure was) possibly even pushing the dreaded double digits. But I stuck with it, and blogged my nonexistent ass off and here I am a year later still at goal. And you know what, I still struggle. I have my great days and my off days but no matter what, I have no lost site of the importance of health and being aware of what I eat and how much I move.

I’d still like to lose another 7 pounds (those damn 7 that I have been talking about since last Fall) but all in all I’m happy with how far I’ve come and the fact that I’ve maintained the same weight (roughly) since October and I have not tracked since like November. Not bad if you ask me.
Happy Anniversary to me!

I think you’ve done a fabulous job! I just want you to know that you opened my eyes to something. I always looked at thinner girls and thought they didn’t go through the same struggles to lose weight as I did. Then I met you, I read your blog and I realized, 300 pounds to lose 10 pounds to lose, we all struggle to lose and maintain. I’m very proud of you and so glad I’ve met you!
