One-derland and birthday goals!


(Carolyn aka stokies) #1

Yesterday was my bday. Today was a belated gift - work up to being in onederland :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:

YAY! It was my goal to hit that by my birthday - 24 hrs is close enough!

My next goal is to hopefully lose another 10 pounds by end of June so I can hit 100 lbs lost by my Ketoversary.

Fingers crossed! 90 down, 30 to go for ultimate goal… but am happy even where I am now :smile: I am smaller than I was when I got married 19 years ago (even though weigh more, but know I have more muscle now…)

Sorry so scattered. Just never thought I would get here, ever, let alone so soon! Don’t give up on your future self. You will get there - I promise. My health is so much better, and no longer struggling with daily pain… so much healing. So worth it…

That was great to read. Really good job, that has to feel so awesome. Im hoping to give myself the same birthday present! Im not very far off from what I can tell. I dont weigh or measure, but knowing my body, I feel about 210, and my birthday’s in August. That should be doable.

Getting my hair done and spend the day cycling lol. Thanks for asking. Very laid back. And most of my “friends” forget I exist around this time lol. Makes me value “strangers” here because you have no reason to care but are kind <3

Congratulations! And happy birthday!

In that order? Seems counter productive. :slight_smile:

(Never expected to read those two activities in the same sentence.)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, STOKIES!

Stokies, allow me to be the last to congratulate you - and to say Happy Birthday! Hope you had a nice ride and day. Do you do anything like ride your age for your birthday?

I missed this due to not being by the forums in a while. My apologies.

I am not that ambitious for such an early ride in the season, given I turned 43 :laughing:

A bit too cold here, but did get 18 miles in - so it was an enjoyable ride for me. Nice brisk but not too taxing a ride - and amazing to see nature waking up in the early spring sunshine.

Thanks for the bday wishes and for asking and hope this finds you well!
