I’ve struggled with my weight all my life. I lost 100+ pounds at 22, then again at 36, then again at 40. Last May at 46, I looked at my wedding pictures with horror and started fresh. I’ve lost 65 pounds since then and need to lose another 65. I hope to be at my goal by the end of 2011.
The halfway point is a difficult place to be, motivation-wise. I’m no longer in plus sizes, I can do pretty much anything I want to do – hike, bike, snowshoe, spend all day wandering a museum – without getting over-tired, winded, or in pain. So why keep going to my goal weight?
