Talking It actually worked.

I was thinking this morning as I put on my size "8", yes that is right size "8" pants, that wow it actually worked. I know I have been losing weight low-carbing. But it is finally sinking in. I am thin now. I have reversed back in time to 12 years ago. And as I think back, you know it really wasn't that hard. Oh, I did have my stalls. I don't think I moved much over the whole summer. But I just accepted that and kept on going. Hey a 12 is better than an 18. So what if my body want to take a BREAK for a while. Now I have those times when l look down at my legs, and I don't recognize them at first. Then I am like, wow those are my thighs!

It may have taken 10 months, which when first starting out seemed like a very long time, but I got there. Now it seems like a very short time. Now I want to preach out to the world. I know how to do it! I know how to lose the weight! To heck with Dr. Phil, ask me!!! But instead I just smile and eat another piece of cheese.
