News from the land of Clare

[mutantclare]

Some of you may already know this and others may not. Either way, it's time to share some good news.
For the past year or so I've been actively working to lose weight. I joined Weight Watchers last September with the intention of losing a little more than 50 pounds.
When I joined, I weighed 182 pounds.
Today I reached my goal weight (actually, I reached a pound below my goal weight). 55 pounds later, I now weigh 127 pounds. To reward myself for all my hard work, I joined a gym. So in the coming months, besides already being 10 pant sizes smaller than when I started, I'll be buff, lean, strong and ready to rumble. It's been a long process and one that I've mostly kept off the radar of the MRFH. The new bio pictures probably made it pretty clear that something was up. I just wanted to make an official announcement that I hit goal. Thanks to Poolman in particular for his ongoing encouragement and support during the past year and to all the MRFH family for their ongoing support and encouragement in general. You guys kick ass. ;D

Wow... just... wow.

I've been losing weight like mad as well, so I know how it is to put on a piece of clothing and realize it's way too loose. Congratumalations.

That's just awesomely awesome. I just have one thing to say: John Cusak.

55 pounds? Good gravy, that's a Kate Moss! Way to go!

Losing 55 pounds is no mean feat, but I know a way to make it seem even more impressive: Envision 55 pounds of ground beef.

That's a lotta meat! More than enough to sculpt a modest-sized evil hamburger golem. Not that I condone that sort of behavior.
