I started my first round of Game On! November 12, 2009 and weighed in at 169.8. I have lost 24.2lbs in 5 mos.

On July 8, 2008 I weighed 233lbs. I have lost 87.4 lbs since the day I had Wilson.

I am proud to have played this game with all you wonderful folks.

I am so thankful for the bad habits I have changed and the good habits I have started. To this day, I take 3 minutes every morning and balance my accounts (for work) in Quickbooks. That alone was worth every minute of the game.

I am thankful for the good habits I have passed along to my kids. They have expressed an interest in exercise and making healthier food choices. Oh how I hope & pray they can get and stay on the right track at the ages they are now. Instead of having to relearn everything at my age like I did.

I look back and I am amazed at the progress I have made since November. Sure, there were some hard days. Some days just plain SUCKED! But I remember the good days, the increased energy, my first pair of size 6 jeans more.

I don't feel sorry or picked on for having held myself to this plan. I feel blessed. I feel like I know a secret I wish I could tell the whole world!

I came across this quote today on Kirk Weisler's T4D (Thought for the Day)

“Few people will turn to themselves to take responsibility for their results until they have exhausted all opportunities to blame someone else. ~ Larry Winget

If you don't get his daily T4D already, you should really consider signing up. It is fabulous! He's the Dog Poop Initiative author.

p.s. I think I answered my questions from last week in this post.
What benefits do I get from GO!
What benefits does my family get from GO!
Is the energy and time I channel to GO! better spent elsewhere?
Have I improved my overall health & well-being since beginning GO!?
