Looking forward to the New Year!

I'm looking forward to bringing in a new year. 2010 was a good year for me. One of the highlights of that year has been getting banded and then losing 50 pounds. Last year at this time I was still struggling to get insurance approval and feeling so defeated. This year I believe that 2011 will bring me to my goal weight. I never thought I would feel so confident about realizing my goal. I can say that although it has taken me 9 months to lose 50 pounds, I feel like those pounds are really gone. It hasn't been painful, it's been slow and steady and if it takes me 9 months to lose the next 50, I will be at my goal weight in September. But either way I feel confident that 2011 will indeed bring me to my goal. What a wonderful thing to look forward to. I am so happy with the changes so far and can't wait to be able to share with you what it feels like to be at a normal healthy weight. It's been a wonderful year and I'm looking forward to an even better one to come!
Have a great day!
Big Hugs!

There is no time limit on it - we'll all get there! I'm looking forward to 2011 also - for some reason it feels different going into a new year not being fatter than ever. I'm 1/2 way to goal and it just feels different this time. Cheers!

I so get what you mean about being confident. I've never, ever had this confidence before. And it's not confident that it will happen quickly or easily - it's just calm confidence that it will indeed happen.

Way to go on the 50 already gone and here's to you (raising my glass here) and the next 50 in 2011!!
