Silence broken

So I've been out of touch for a while and there's a reason. I've been cheating on this blog with another one - but it was private, so no you're not being swapped out with another audience. My doc had put me on a very restrictive 40 day diet and I started another private blog to document the journey. My first 40 days are over - but I can proudly say - and I want to shout from the rooftops actually -

I LOST 40 LBS AND DROPPED 6 BMI POINTS!!!

I totally didn't think I could do it, and while I still have a super long way to go it is a start that is so encouraging, and my docs were uber impressed. One kept going on and on about the 6 pt BMI drop. She said in all her years she'd never seen that - 3 pts yes, but 6 - never. I told her - what can I say - I'm an over acheiver.

Anyways. I just wanted to share my good news somewhere - and facebook is a little too public. So yay!

My next 40 day adventure begins the day after Thanksgiving. Doc says to be prepared with just 20 lbs this time - though I'm shooting for 25 or 30 :-)

Thanks for indulging me and letting me share my good news.
