Please excuse the tooting (and don't open if beached whales offend you!!)...

[Traci Reed]

I hit a weight loss milestone today...35 lbs! Well actually, I completely skipped 35 and went from 34 to 36.4 :D

I wanted to post some before and after pics...please excuse the horrid before...I *didn't* allow full body shots so the only one I have was one taken unawares while I was fixing the barrette in my hair at the lake..like La has already pointed out, I look like I'm sniffing my pit {thanks La! LOL}

Here I am at the beginning, 20 lbs and now 35 lbs down! I'm so excited!

Wahoo, Traci! Congrats, girl! Totally something to be proud of.

I am down 26 pounds, but I have been slacking the last couple of weeks, my clothes still fit the same so I am assuming I didn't put on anything in my slacker period. Just need to get back on track, I wanna lose another 15 pounds. And in dreamer land, another 10 after that.

You look fabulous, Traci! And I'm inspired to get off the laptop and hit the elliptical again. Woot!

p.s. I'd be perfectly happy if one person a day shared some sort of motivating weight-loss tidbit. Something about yourself or some cool article or must-have outfit or something that will remind me to love myself enough to set aside my to-do list long enough to exercise.

[HeatherKS]
