HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE...me & my weight loss



Well, I have not figured out how to put text above photos, but those who are familiar with my blog knowledge (cough) know this is not unique.

Why the photos? Not really a brag thing, yet it is. Only because it has been such a LONG struggle to lose weight. Not just a few years of struggle, but say almost 15 years of struggle. Since Sept of this year, I've so far lost 32 lbs. I've about 17 more to lose and my goal is to reach my target weight by my birthday in April. Will you see "before" photos? No way!!! These pictures are a reminder to me to not give up or give in, but to keep going.

Tonight will bring in a new year. 2006! It is hard to believe I'm alive in 2006! I mean, when I was like 15 I thought the year 2000 would be when I was VERY old and probably dead! But that was when I was 15. We know it all at 15. Just lose the knowledge as we age!

I wish everyone a very happy new years and that 2006 will be an awesome year.

It is beginning much better for me, as I have a new job which I'll begin on the 9th January!!! Thank you GOD!

We should match notes, I can't seem to put my picture above the words. Dang!
And, about the before and after thing...if you're still up about losing, aren't the pictures you show now going to be the before pictures later?
Not to worry, you look fabulous! Good luck on future losses....that almost doesn't sound right.
After quitting smoking, I found an additional twenty pounds trying to hide my feet and can't shake the darn things to save me!
Course, then again, folks keep saying that, smoker or not, when ya turn fifty, all the pounds ya didn't gain back then come to ya overnight.

Hi Lady, I came to your blog from Boneman's hoping to help you put words above and around your pictures.

You know how to load a picture obviously.

After you load it & press the DONE button, when that picture appears in your post, click on it with the left mouse button - continue holding down the mouse button & drag it - say before the second sentence in your post then release the mouse button. You'll know you are dragging it because the flashing cursor will follow you until you release the left mouse button.

If you've left justified the picture the text will wrap around the right side of your picture. If you right justify the picture, your text will wrap around the left side of your picture.

I hope this helps you!!

Andrea
