So now that I'm getting closer to goal, things have slowed down. I've been having a much harder time staying on track. Sweets and carbs have been calling my name. I admit...I ate whatever I wanted over my birthday weekend. I'm still exercising regularly, and it makes me hungrier. I'm very happy with my body size now - if I never lose another pound, I'd be good. Still, I would like to reach my goal and see what that feels like. But I just couldn't get motivated. Until Angela.
My very good friend Angela, whom I've known for 10 years now (wow!), has challenged me to lose the final pounds with her. We both had 14 pounds to go till we reach a goal (mine will end with me at 160 - my surgeon's suggestion for a goal). Game on! Loser treats the winner to an item from a boutique in Missoula when I visit her there in May. So far I'm ahead - I'm already down 4 pounds. But Angela has just been released to start running again, after months of being unable to. She's going to give me a run for my money, I know it.
