Goal #1 - ACCOMPLISHED!!!

First of all, let me just say WOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!  I never thought that getting on the scale would bring me this much joy, but hey, I guess it's all how I approach it.  My first goal was to get under 140 pounds...mission accomplished!!

I knew that I needed to set small goals for myself, otherwise it would just be a lesson in "How not to shoot myself in the head."  If I thought about how long it would take me to get to my BIG goal (and all of the work that it would take me to get there) I would probably just panic and say "Screw it!"  So I set little goals for myself and I'm going to reward myself when I get to each goal. 

So what's my reward for reaching Goal #1?  SHOES!!!  Seriously, if you know me at all, you know that it couldn't be anything else.  I'm a shoe fanatic to the nth degree!! However, this weekend is our annual shopping trip to Columbus with some of the ladies in my family so I might have to look for some SMALLER SIZE JEANS TOO!!  Wow, wouldn't that be a hoot!!  If I can find a pair of jeans that fit and look good (looking good in them is a must because seeing someone with sausage rolls hanging over their too-small pants is never attractive, I don't care if they are a smaller size) I'm gonna have to snatch them up!!  I've never been smaller than a size 8 in my entire life, even when I was in elementary school...sad but true.  So if I can find some sweet 6's that make my tush look fabulous, they are comin' home with Momma!!
