This layout has a very special meaning for me. I have been working at losing weight since last August and I am SO VERY CLOSE to my final goal but I have finally crossed the big marker. I have now lost 80 pounds in total. I began at 230 pounds and am down to 150. My ultimate goal is 145 - hopefully before Convention - but those last 5 pounds are proving extremely difficult to lose. I am walking 90 minutes every morning (usually from 6:15am to 7:45 or so).
I am feeling terrific. My husband, since he sees me every day, couldn't believe the difference when he saw the "before" photo! He says he doesn't see the change so much because he sees me day in and day out. It wasn't until he compared the two photos that he really saw the difference.
There is a photo under the layout with details of one of the clusters. As usual, I relied on my favourite colour, lagoon. The photo was actually taken with me in a lagoon coloured shirt, but my printer insisted in printing it in more of a bluish tone, so I decided to turn it to black and white instead.
Enjoy,
Alyson
