long journey

For some reason, tonight I'm really getting a sense of how long this journey is. It's a life-long journey. I am so proud for how far I've come (though it really was only through the power of God that I came this far!). And I'm excited about where I'm going next. But I'm getting tired. I've been doing this for 13 months now, and I have like 750 more to go. *whew* That's a long time.

I'm almost to my maintenance phase.

I'm almost to the point where I can just focus on living healthy. I won't have to work my tail off to erase all of my hard work.

Of course, I'll just have to work my tail off to stay where I'll be at. But at least it will be somehting different. And I think I'm really ready for a change--so it's coming at a perfect time.

I actually have some good posts coming up (I hope--that they're good; and that they're coming!), so that should be fun. But that's tough, since I usually use my blog posts to do those boring old stats updates. And, to be honest, writing "real" posts takes so much more time! So maybe I'll work on doing one more detailed post a week. And I think once I get to my maintenance/toning-up phase, I'll stop with the twEATing and the daily exercise log. But I'm not there yet. So, here are the stats for my lazy day:
