Brass ring within reach

Recently, I met up with an online friend, who let me know that I have not posted since January. January! Holy cow!

So much has happened since January.

I have finally won, I think. I am talking about the war with my ham (what I affectionately called the stubborn roll around my waist.)

My main weapon was an adult hula hoop. I have so much to write here, but for now, I will just announce this:

This morning, I weighed myself and found, to my utter shock, that I have finally broken the number barrier.

139

One thirty nine.

I have not weighed less than 140 pounds in years and years.

The best part, though, is reaching a size 8, and having my size 8 pants become loose over the past week.

My goal of a size 6 is very, very close.

Oh, and my back and SI pain are gone, also courtesy of the hooping.

I can't tell you how wonderful I feel.

Well, OK, I will.

Very soon.
