		<description>I am really behind on blogs and just got over here to read this.
But, wow!  To look back at the previous year and see all that you have accomplished is incredible.

You have begun some really great steps in attaining your new goals.
But, don&#039;t forget to give yourself the credit you deserve for the things you have already accomplished.

Here&#039;s to you in 2009!</description>

		<description>I&#039;m with you each step of the way.  You have done awesome and there&#039;s still more to come.

I&#039;d like to shake you a little though:) You shouldn&#039;t be afraid to see anyone.  You have come a long way and God is giving you a great testimony.  You might be even able to help someone that you used to go to school with, etc. 

 Don&#039;t be hard an yourself.  I&#039;m in the same boat.  I would loooove to burn every picture that I took from birth to present but I can&#039;t.  That was who I used to be, but I&#039;m not that big girl of the group anymore.

Keep up the good work and thanks for all your support and encouragement this past wk.  I definately needed them.

		<description>I&#039;m with Sandy...you&#039;re at a plateau.  It won&#039;t be that way forever. And yes, sometimes you have to temporarily bump up your calories (I had to do that for a 48 hr period once).  Google it and see what advice you find, but go with what you feel is best for your body.  

Love.  So tricky.  I married at 22.  My best friend from high school is getting married in February.  We&#039;re 31.  She&#039;s an amazing Christian woman, not to mention smart, sweet, funny, pretty, (and has always been thin).  I thought for sure she&#039;d be married before me...but that wasn&#039;t God&#039;s timing.  I just want to encourage you with that because a great marriage is worth holding out for.  Unconditional love is worth it.  And you have the opportunity to define who YOU are as an INDIVIDUAL right now. 

Anyways, sorry to babble on...You are doing a great job.  Do NOT give up!</description>

		<description>1) I read your blog, and your on my bloglines so you popped up today.  So keep on writing, it is very theraputic.
2) I&#039;m glad you had a great time at the wedding.  You are beautiful and people noticing always gives you that special warm gooey feeling we all need, so bask in it.
3) Your body is rebelling.  It is going into starvation mode and is trying to settle in the 230s.  Keep your eye on the prize.  You have accomplished so much this year.  Don&#039;t you dare give up, or I&#039;ll have to come over from blog land and knock some sense into you.  You having a nasty plateau and everyone has them.  Google plateau and get some advice.  Some people suggest bumping up the calories.  You have more muscle than fat now.  Muscle burns calories. If you don&#039;t eat, then the body tries to save the fat you have while the muscles are burning the calories.  Go to spark people or fitday and find out how many calories you should be eating.  Put 230 as you new starting weight and go from there.
4) God has a plan and a purpose for you. I had the same questions about finding that perfect love.  Every girl has them.  Mine were answered at 28yr old to a wonderful man who get this... THOUGHT IF YOU WORE A SIZE 16, YOU WERE ANERXIC (SP?).  Go figure, he loved me in all my 270 lbs glory and now is my biggest cheerleader.  He wants me to be healthier for him and the kiddos now.  He&#039;ll love me if I never lose a pound.  That is who you want.  Don&#039;t think you have to weigh 135 to have true love.  Just be you.

Anywho, I&#039;m praying you keep up the good work. Hugs
