Hey everyone,

Well I reached my weight goal of 130.  Yea!!!!

I am so happy to report it feels great.  I have so much energy and feel like I can breath even deeper now (as silly as that may sound).  I love trying on clothes now too.  I even love to see my body in the mirror.

I have to admit that at one point somewhere in my 140’s I thought it was going to be virtually impossible to even get to my original goal of 135.  I told myself well maybe it is true what they say as you get older you can’t get back to your old size.  My stomach at one point also looked unrepairingly bad.  It actually looked lumpy and disgusting.  So I decided it was either deal with this and be happy I atleast made it into the 140s and looked alot better then from my starting point, but continue to not be 100% happy with myself and camaflouge my imperfections - or work harder at the progress I had already made.  So I worked harder…

The results came almost too quickly at that point.  I dropped to the low 140’s and then to the high 130’s.  My stomach started to look toned and that is what it took to give me the extra motivation to continue on this weightloss journey. 

So now I have achieved what I set out to do.  I am happy to report it is all worth it.  Never settle.  There will be ups and downs, but stick with it. Consistency and changing it up on your body coupled with good eating habits will win out!

I always wonder to myself what brought others to this site.  What made them think to go online and look for a sight to help them lose weight. 

Personally, I was watching 20/20 and heard a story of 3 woman that met each other after sharing a online relationship through a weightloss sight affiliated with People’s Magazine. They shared such a bond after losing lots of weight together that they had to meet!

I searched and searched for this site, but had trouble finding it until one day I happened upon this site and I have been here ever since.  Good thing I did, too.  It has been a tremendous help to me tracking my progress, and getting lots of support most importantly.

I have even paid for sites and they have not been this helpful. Before hearing about this site on 20/20 I only thought to keep track of my weightloss through a weight ticker I could manage. 

So how did you find Buddyslim?  I am just curious.
