Incredible sense of power
Happy Goal Day - I know how it feels and there's nothing like it...you actually succeeded! Isn't that something to make you re-think a lot!
Get ready for the inside weight to be shed now!

awwww thanks everyone.....yeah, actually did get a wee bit choked up over this one today. I really was wondering if I would ever see that number. I gotta picture of it but silly pewter doesn't want to let me upload it off my camera....  ...but I got it on there to prove it! I'm gonna have to make a copy of it for my docs and the PA's....they honestly never thought I would get there and really kinda discouraged me for setting my goal that low. I proved them all wrong!!
Phoenix, I've been dropping that inside weight since before I even took the step to have the surgery. I know it is an on-going process; the internal and the external but it is a process I feel so very honored to be able to go through. It's a gift...all the work, it truly is a gift.

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment."
