Double Digits

99. Only two digits, not three. As of Friday, January 17, 2025, that’s the number of pounds I have left to hit the target given to me by my doctor a decade (or more) ago. I understand that not many people “brag” about having 99 pounds to lose (45 kg), but when you started with 162 pounds to lose (73.5 kg), 99 is a number you’ve only dreamed about for a very long time! I may get there, I may not. We’ll just have to see how long the medication continues to help me, and how low it reasonably allows me to go. My “final destination” could be higher or lower than the initial target we set, but you have to start somewhere, and it’s a lot easier to know what needs to be done if you have somewhere to aim. Thank you all for your continued love and support on this journey. Wishing us all an amazing year full of achievable goals, along with the skills, tools, focus, and energy needed to reach them!
