Thumbs up First Successful Goal

My first goal was to lose the amount that my 3 year old weighs which is 40 pounds. I am happy to say I have accomplished this goal! My second goal is to lose the amount my 12 year old weighs which is 70 pounds. To lift my 3 year old is pretty heavy (I don't do this yet, don't want a hernia) and knowing the 40 pounds is off feels great! Just wanted to share!

Default update

My original goal to lose as much as my 4 year old's weight was accomplished and my next goal was to lose what my 12 year old weighs. He weighs 70 pounds and I finally reached this milestone and passed right by. I am down 72 pounds and feeling great. My next goal is to reach my 11 year old daughter's weight which is 97 pounds. Can't wait to get there. Thanks for everyone's support. Love ya all!!!!
