Okay - so I wanted to hit 40# off by Christmas - well, I'm now reaching for that goal by Thanksgiving - a month early!!! I'm at the jumping off point from a barrier that has held me back for a very long time - I'd get close then pop back up (in my weight) - then approach it again and up I'd go again!!! Well, this time, with determinateion and thanks to my NS food and my NS friends' support - I'm going to jump over the barrier and carry on to my ultimate goal!!! Thank you everyone for being there for me and supporting me in my efforts!!! Color me HAPPY!!!!
