Hello Beautiful!

The color of the water kills me!

So perfectly clear!

The "shark".  This 50 lb Tarpon had its fins behind Jake and I thought it was a shark!!

Post beach sack out!

A Mountaintop Accomplishment

I did it!  And now I've flown past it!!
Last week I lost 2 pounds and hit my 50 pound loss accomplishment!!!  It just happened to be the week I was in Jupiter and weighed in at my old meeting, but I earned my little 50 pound reward token and the sense of MAJOR accomplishment!
This week I lost 1.8 pounds and am up to 51.8 total loss!  THis is so exciting.
Even though I was on "vacation" last week--driving my kids to VBS every morning, myself to breakfast dates, dr. appts, parties and the beach--my sister in law Amy and I worked out 5 out of 6 mornings that I was there!!!  She introduced me to Jillian Michaels 30 day Shred, which left my muscles shaking for hours afterwards.  Who is this person I've become who puts up with that kind of punishment?  I'm not sure, other than the person who is well on her way to finishing the last 35 pounds left to lose by December!!!!!!
