I have officially lost my 100th pound! I am pretty

excited. I stayed "in the box" over the Christmas

holidays and continued with my exercise plan and

it worked. I traveled over the holidays and was

a little apprehensive about how the eatting and

workouts would go, but it all went just fine. I was

able to workout at the Curves in Pocahontas one

day and the Curves in Branson, MO two days. The

other days I either walked outside, or workout with

a DVD.

For all of you who are wondering about the little

wager between my friend Brad and myself, well

with the -1.3 this week I now only have 9.9 pounds

to go until Brad has to by me a CD. That is unless

he wins :( Hey Brad, how is it going?

For those of you who may not know Brad, he is the

inspiration for this new way of life I have decided to

adopt. Brad started a little over a year ago on the

same plan I am on now with phenomenal results. So,

I was talking to him about it one day and he said,

"Debbie, I know there are diabetic patients who are

doing this program. You should call them." Well, I

thought about that for a while, then I called. And the

rest, as they say... Now 10 months and 1 week later

I have lost 100 pounds. Thanks Brad for the inspiration

and all the encouragement.
