THE BIG 30...

No, I'm not about to be 30..I thankfully have a couple of years until that. The big 30 is in relation to the amount of weight I have lost in the past 6 weeks. I can officially say that I have been on the South Beach diet. I didn't want to tell anyone until I knew I was going to stick with it and it was going to work. After dealing with weight almost my whole life, people's words of encouragement can seem destructive instead of constructive. However, now I am feeling great and wanted to share my good news. I also went to the Dr last week for my regular cholesterol check. I have hereditary high cholesterol. He said my my blood work looked the best it ever has! I'm officially proud of myself.



These super cute earrings were a present of encouragement from my super sweet cousin, Whitney, when I hit my minus 20!
My Doctor's writing on my lab work! It's hanging on my fridge along with a few other encouraging things.

Way to go Heather! I am so proud of you. I know it's not easy, just look at me. Maybe your success will encourage me to get my butt in gear.

Somehow I missed this post last week. So fun to see it this morning! Now, could I convince you to reward yourself with a trip to Deland/Beach trip this summer?
