Default Hit my first 20lb mark

I know this has been going on for awhile...but with some pretty big injuries, I haven't been able to work out like I want (read at all pretty much thanks to Jillian Michaels' squats and the need to do just 2 min of jogging after said Jillian Michaels event). I've not had a soda of any kind since Lent began - HUGE accomplishment for me, and while my diet has changed, I'm not doing a no-food thing..just a better food thing. And hit my 20lb weight loss mark this morning. I'm not doing it as quickly as some, but it's an accomplishment, nonetheless.

Yay, that's awesome Darcy. It is a wonderful accomplishment. You should be proud of yourself, especially for going about it in a healthy way. I'm a diet soda fiend, I admire your ability to give it up.

WOW Darcy! That is awesome! Eating better and more healthy is really the goal, like you said.

I am totally into Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution and want to make global changes to my entire family's diet.

Congrats!

WTG, Darcy! Slow & steady is good. I've heard that slow weight loss is better for avoiding loose, excess skin.

Darcy Baldwin, don't you DARE apologize for your weight loss! You should be like, "Bow to me, I lost twenty pounds!"

And I do, bow to you. WTG!
