Twenty-Five Pounds GONE---hopefully forever!!

-
As I've said since January--slow and steady wins the race.  It has taken me this long to lose 25 lbs. since January and you know what, I'm ok with that--because it is staying off.  One year ago in June, I weighed about 210bs. (per my doctor's office).--today, I weigh 169.5--that is a 40.5 weight loss since about a year ago.

So, what is 25 lbs.??  5 bags of ice (5 lbs. each)....12.5 bags of M&Ms  (the 2 Pounders)...yup, all of that GONE!

40.5 lbs.?  Well that's really easy...my 8 year old weighs about 47 lbs.  so just shy of lil ole Bailey.

I have about 40 more I want to lose--so I'm hoping this time next year, I would have reached that goal.

Since I have reached this mini goal--I wonder what I should reward myself with....(non-food related).

Bring on the ideas!!!

Please can I keep this going?

Went to the doctor earlier this week and my doctor was very happy with my progress.  Since June of 2010, I have lost 30+ lbs.  This makes me very happy! The other great thing is if you can see my little Fitness Pal to the left, yeah it says 15 lbs. down.  (since January 2011) I had a 2 lb. loss this week.  I'm just on cloud nine right now :-)  So this is my dilemma--most of the time, when I hit this point in my weight loss, I start to 'slip up' and I get right back to where I was.  How do you keep going on your journey?

2026.04.19 Sermon Notes: Why Is Jesus The Only Way?

Westside Family Church Why Is Jesus The Only Way Pastor Jonathan Hansen (Triish's last Sunday in worship will be Sunday, April 26, 2026.---She is moving to Dallas, TX!) Notes:  1 Peter 3:15 In your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for he hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect When we are dealing with life or death consequences, persuasion becomes an act of love. Eventually the tornados of life and death and suffering, and t ragedy will come our way, and when it does, it will hit like a freight train. And then we start to ask the big questions… What are the apologetics? 1. Why are we here? 2. How did this whole thing happen? 3. What happens after we die? 4. How do I make sense of pain and suffering? 5. What's the purpose of my life? These questions are so important because if we understand the BEGINNING of the story (where we came from) and the END of the story (where we are going)...
