Round 5 Update Aug 4 2012

Sorry I have not kept up my blog!  I have been working on things... and really the more rounds I do of this, the less I see the need to post! I used this blog as way to vent my frustrations, share my successes and personal goals -- really not intended for anyone but me to remember and look back on.  I am on day 22 of this 30 day round -- I am down 12.2 pounds so far... I am o.k. with that... it has been slow this go round.

I went to Ross stores today and just picked some random size 14 dresses (things I would NEVER wear or purchase!) I just wanted to see how they fit.. and guess what! THEY DID!  I can't believe it... When I finish this round I will be a SOLID size 14 with no problem (right now I am a 14/16) I started HCG on Aug. 16 of 2011 - When I finish this round, it will be 1 full year to the day -- If you would have told me 1 year ago that I would be a size 14 today, I would have not believed it!  Nor would I believe I would be preparing to fly to China to get my little girl... but look what a year has brought!  Thank you Lord Jesus for EVERYTHING!  I will not abuse this or take it for granted, the blessings you have poured out on me!  I want to glorify God with what He has given me.

Here is a recent pic... I put it on facebook and it got a lot of compliments... I wasn't fishing for them... I forget that I haven't posted many pics on my public facebook page... so when I did, people immediately  noticed the weightloss! (It was nice!)
