It's Weigh In Day!

My clothes are still safe....no casual wear harmed today!

Down 2.4 lbs this week....new total 25.9 gone forever! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!




The best part is that now I only have 49.1 lbs left to get to my goal. That is totally doable. It sure sounds better than the 75 lbs I needed to lose when I started this journey April 9th!!!

I finally believe I can do this....

In other news, look at how skinny my kid is.



He looks amazing.

Grats! It's just amazing for both of you - oh and your son... he does look like Daughtry on your side bar! I couldn't lose weight to save my soul... until I started running. Now, it's coming off!

Hot mama coming through. You go girlfriend! (I don't think it is cool to say that anymore, but perhaps I can bring it back.) Seriously though - that is some hard work. Great progress!

He looks skinny but well we all did at that age. He's funny and all but so is his Mama and she is looking mighty fine and bravo on the weight loss.

25 pounds. I hope you look back and see all the BITCHING you were putting us through during your success. Waaaawaaawaaaa and 25 pounds later!!

Whew. I didn't think I could do it.

50 to go? honey, when we get a certain age......we WANT to keep the wrinkles filled.

Wooo Hooo....You go girl. I am so proud of you. I hit 34 this week and I am delighted. I met a girl who has lost 66 pounds this week....she is an inspiritation. Funny story...I went to a consignment shop in Auburn, AL....and bought two pair of capri pants - Coldwater Creek (may favs). I had them on at our inservice this week...and guess what...they had been hers. Now she is just going to give me her stuff....I am loving this! I don't want to spend a lot of money on clothes...til I hit my goal weight...and that is 60 pounds away.

I'm so proud of you, Julie! And Jordan too! What are you both doing to lose the weight?

Are you listening to Dr. Penny?

You're going to be my role model for sure. I need to get my butt in gear.

That Janie Girl said...

you go, girlfriend!

And yeah, your son does look amazing! Good genes, right?

Fragrant Liar said...

Another "missing" piece of your puzzle: 2.4 poundage!

Jordan does look amazing. He resembles Daughtry -- one of my fave new artists. Have people told him that?

Sue said...

You're doing so great Julie. And Jordan... jeez, I wouldn't even have recognized him.
