- 1.8 #'s What most folks realize immediately, when they see me, is that I do not quite look like my picture. I was at 125 pounds then. But today I have made a major headway. I have lost 10.4 pounds since January 13th. I am so excited! Just 6.2 until I get to my 10% target goal. Just 11.2 more to get to the picture. AND just 16.2 until I am at my personal goal of 120!!! It is so getting there. Just whittling away a little at a time.
And I have a closing today. A wonderful seller and a wonderful buyer. Can't ask for more than that!

138 Today
Okay so it's not a lot. But it is down and not up. Down .8 pounds is better than being up 1.6 so I am happy. One can go down a hill fast or slow but at least they are on the way.
But it sure made me feel better to get my perfect listing under contract!
Gorgeous home. I know the new buyers will love it. I will miss the sellers though. Great people.

Pondering Life
I just read that Dr. Alan Day had a fatal motorcycle accident. I know a lot of folks will curse the perils of the sport of motorcycle riding. I grew up on a motorcycle so, I, like Dr. Day have a healthy respect, yet not terror of motorcycles. I remember the freedom and relaxation of those rides as a teen. Now I love scuba and water skiing. Of course any of these things can be fatal if just the right thing happens at just the right time. But I have often thought, "What a way to go!"
Imagine riding along with the breeze rushing across your face, and then you are suddenly face to face with Jesus. I can see myself swimming in the sea at fifty feet, among the most beautiful of God's creation and then in a moment; I am at the feet of Jesus!
The chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. So hats off to Dr. Day who like Elijah went to Jesus while fully enjoying the life he was given. I'll bet he was praying as he rode.

138.8
I am so excited. 3 pounds gone this week. I only have 18.8 pounds to go. I made my first 5%WW goal and am heading for the 10%. Then I will go for the final hurdle.
So by spring I will be able to get rid of all my big clothes and wear the smaller ones.
I love success and hate failure so I am pumped!!

Monday Up a Bit!! 141.8
OK...so what do they say about failure?
Don't quit.
Just begin again.
I gained 1.6 pounds on the WW scale last Monday. It was totally due to the Super Bowl. I had a great week until then. After all what's a girl supposed to do for four hours, when her interest level is less than zero. Were it not for good conversation with friends, I could have gained 20 pounds!
But
I have been very good this week and think the 14th will be very sweet on the scale. I can hardly wait to see my weight on Monday. I think I will have made up for the bad week.
The IRS and State tax totals almost made me lose all the circulation in my face. But after looking at the accounts I am grateful that we have it to pay. We usually have extra put back...but at least we do have it!
Someone once said.
"If you're paying taxes, that means you're making money."
So there is that.
The new salon location is going great. I have gotten several new clients. Really nice folks,too. And I am getting good reviews from very appreciated existing clients.
The listing in Blackberry Springs is under contract.
Life is good.
Thank you for the blessings Lord Jesus! Give me a grateful heart!

Third Week 140.2
Lost again! Not as much but still less is more. Down 1.2 is better than up. It is still the size of a baby puppy, or a little over a block of American Cheese. I seem to find value in placing an object of the same weight to get a visual of what may now be missing from this body. Just 20.2 to go!!
I am so excited. I bought Logos 4 Scholar Edition software Friday and have it on my computer. It is amazing. So much information accessed in such an easy manner. Once I get my taxes finished I am all over it. I woke up thinking I could play with it today while we were in hibernation mode due to this weather. Then I remembered that I need to finish my tax reports. Fun times.Always something hanging over my head to do. Lose weight, clean house, do taxes, wash clothes, bathe the doggies.....
This next two days should get me caught up.
