Hello Everyone!
I have been reading this message board for awhile and I thought I would finally stop lurking! :) Yesterday I had one of those triumph moments and I thought it would be a good time to share with everyone. I bought a pretty silver belly chain a few months back that I thought would fit me. Unfortunately, when I tried it it was just a hair out of my reach...how depressing that was! I try it on from time to time and yesterday the ends finally met! Yay! It is still too tight to wear but it is a start and gives me hope! I have been exercising off and on for the past couple of years and have lost 20 pounds from my highest weight... I am in a high motivation swing at the moment and am hoping to get off the 40 pounds or so that I want to lose for good. I am not following any specific diet, I am just watching my portions and increasing my water coupled with 30-60 mins of walking on my treadmill 4-5 times a week. I just wanted you to know you have all helped me...I visit almost daily and it reminds me that I am not alone.
Hugs to all!

This message board helps me as well. Glad that you shared your story! Good luck with the chain. I have a pair of khaki slacks that hang over my closet door for the same reason. This summer they WILL fit!!!

Thanks so much! I WILL wear that chain! And I have other things, some jeans that a friend gave me and a new top that I bought because I loved it but I can't wear just yet. We just all have to keep our eyes on the things that will make it worth it!

YES YES YES--I call it keeping my eye on the prize! I had a great moment this AM when the scale moved for the first time in almost a month. The little milestones do help make big changes possible.
