Reason To Celebrate

I am celebrating my own accomplishment here! I hit the 50 pound mark in my weight loss journey. I have struggled along the way and I truthfully thought at times "oh forget it" but I am on a journey and I have to keep moving forward. I was hoping to reach this milestone by Thanksgiving and was not too happy about about not accomplishing it. A little too much pie, cake and cookies! I got right back on track and here I am.

DH here. Carol I can not hold a candle to your strength and character. Although I have been called quite a character a time or two, I don't quite think I was being complimented. You are an inspiration to me. I am grateful to God for putting us together. Let's grow old together... well I am growing older you are growing younger. I love you so much! And these kids of ours.. wow! Life has become wonderful because of you and your enthusiasm. With the hours I put in at work you are almost raising the children by yourself... and doing the absolute best. As much as I want to be home more... I know everything is in your capable, loving hands which lets me bring home bacon. You are more than just the mortar that holds this family together, you are the icing on the cake, the tree topper, the fun! You make it all worth it. You are Christmas spirit. The words that you bring to my mind are; happiness, fortitude, wisdom, sex (oh did I say that... oops), romance, perseverance. I wish this had spell check. My computer is acting up so much to the delight of anyone reading this I have to stop!.
Carol, everyone who knows you loves you... but none more than me. (The chillins are a tie for a close second). I love you baby.
Your lobster... DH

Oh I am so very proud of you - and at the same time so very jealous! Of both your weight loss and of the happiness you have found with John.
Have a wonderful, crazy, very special holiday season!

Yaaayy!!! Congrats on that huge milestone, especially during the holidays. I managed to lose 6 lbs and have gained it almost all back, so I gave up until the new year. ::sniff::

You go girl!
