A Moment On The Lips

So you may be have been asking yourself "What are so and so doing that they are too busy to post"? I don't want to brag too much but it would appear that Roonster and I have floated up to the cream of the crop and we are now well-to-do, hobnobbing with the likes of the Mayor of our city.

La-ti-da

That is not the Mayor standing up there. That is the President of the club, my friend Krista. The Mayor is the one sitting down. This was really a meeting the MOMS Club setup regarding children's literacy but it was nice to be able to talk to the Mayor in this small forum and we were able to ask alot of questions regarding the city, schools and business.

Today was also a big day for me. Today I received my Lifetime award with Weight Watchers. This means that I have reached my weight goal and I have maintained that weight for 6 weeks. You may be saying to yourself "Susan, doesn't look that different to me" and you would be right. I have been maintaining this weight for about a year, but with more babies eventually coming down the pike (I hope), and the obvious desire my body has for my body to be at this weight, my leader and I decided to call this goal. In preparation for tonight my leader requested I bring in pictures from before I joined. As I searched for a decent picture of me 45lbs heavier, I realized 1. there are very few pictures of me post-Rooney and 2. there are NO decent pictures of me 45lbs heavier. Both points made me sad. I brought in my pictures tonight and everyone from Mike, my leader and her assistant on down said "Oh"!

That should make me feel good, but I still have vanity for my 45lb heavier self. Despite that I decided to put my vanity aside (and will only cringe when I read this post) to show you what every one else got to see.

Great job!!! It's wonderful that you made it to your goal. What a feeling of accomplishment. And whoever took that recent photo of you sure has a way with photography. Ü
