I am going to take much more than just a minute to think about this award! I have always loved it when I've seen you pass this award around because you recognize those moments that some of may accidentally miss.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the recognition, but I thank you even more for being part of the recognition!

All of these people are very worthy of the award. They've each accomplished what many are unable or unwilling to do with their hard work and commitment to getting healthier and slimmer.
ReplyDeleteBravo to all of them!
Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you'll have to give yourself an award pretty darn soon. My goodness girl, you are just rocking the scale!
Congrats on your accomplishment & thanks again for the award. :)
Best wishes,

Hi 266!
ReplyDeleteGreetings from Casa Hice. I followed you over here from Joanne's blog Cinq. I'm so happy to make your acquaintance. It's a lovely lovely thing you're doing on your blog - recognizing the efforts and milestones of others on a similar weight loss journey.
I recently lost 70 pounds this year and am so excited and interested in following the success of others in "our boat." Thank you for all the terrific links to follow. I can't wait to get to know you and your blog friends better.
Please come by Casa Hice some time and take a peek at my weight loss journey. I have a photo link on my sidebar called "Adventures in Dieting" that follows my progress from the very beginning - the good, the bad, and the ugly!
I look forward to keeping up with all the progress you are making, so onward and downward, so to speak! {I stole that from Joanne, but I love it}
XO
I'm glad everyone still seems to dig this award! I love giving it out!!!
ReplyDeletethank you!! :-)
ReplyDeleteAll very well deserving people -- I will head over to check out their blogs. And do check out Alix - she was the PING in my brain to get started on this journey - again.
