Default I've Made It To ONEderland!!!!!

I can't believe it, I have actually made it to the 100's. I haven't seen them in over 11 years. I had such a feeling of accomplishment when I weighed myself today. I only have 63 more pounds to go. I celebrated this day by taking a half mile run home from the gym. I haven't been able to run in about 14 years. It(the weight) was just too much on my body while running. I just wanted to see if I could do it. It was a breeze. I felt like a million bucks!!!
In the old days I would have celebrated with food and my favorite soda . Guess I am making real progress, physically and emotionally!
Sorry, I am gushing over myself here, I am just so flipping happy and proud!
