16/18!
When I went shopping this afternoon, I decided to take the plunge and try on a size smaller jeans than what I'm in now.
AND... I'm now officially in a size 1X -- 16 / 18!
WOW!
That's two sizes down in less than 2 months!
I'll tell you straight up -- this just made my day.

TIPS and HINTS
These are tips and hints I've discovered over the past few months. I hope they'll help you as much as they've helped me.
1. Fiber Tablets -- I take Fiber Choice -- 6 per day, 2 after each meal.
2. Switch to 2% Milk or Skim (1%) Milk.
3. Mini-Wheats -- make not only a great breakfast, but about 1 cup in a small zip-loc baggie makes a great low-calories, high fiber snack.
4. WATER -- Eight glasses a day minimum!
5. Add one salad a day to your meal plan. Avoid high-fat salad dressings, though.
6. Mix your salads in large zip-loc baggies -- add just one serving (2 tablespoons) of dressing. Shake the bag thoroughly and it will evenly distribute the dressing.
7. Keep a food diary -- this is my greatest tool for watching what I eat.
8. SHARE. Tell your family and friends that you're making changes and ask them NOT to tempt you or derail your plans.
9. MOVE! Just move. Bend over and pick up things... hula hoop... dance to a video... do toe-touches in the shower. Just move!
10. WALK! Start slowly, if you need to do so, then work up to a mile a day. You can do it -- I know, I did it.
I'll post more later. Each day, I learn something new.

Time to get back...
Time to get back to myself and the "me" that once was. It's been too long since I felt like a real person... for so many reasons.
Back in July of '08, I got a taste of what my (limited) future might be: Heart palpitations, sky-high blood pressure, anxiety attack... not cool. Not fun.
So, here I am 30 pounds lighter and definitely on my way back.
Join me, if you will on this long journey. I know there is no quick fix and I don't want a quick fix. Too much, too soon and you don't appreciate the final results.
I'm on my way.
