Bragging on the MomKatt
This is MY blog and it's normally about CAT things ... but today, my MomKatt has reached a BIG milestone and I just have to brag about her (since she brags about ME so much).
As some of you already know, MomKatt's been doing Weight Watchers since last May. Well, today, she hit a HUGE milestone that she's been trying to hit for a few weeks now - with the holidays, she was either still losing weight or maintaining where she was - which is VERY good - but she couldn't quite make this particular point during the month of December as she'd originally wanted to do.
Today, she achieved it.
See the copper-colored disc on the left with "50 lbs" engraved on it? Yup - today she met - nay, she EXCEEDED - the 50 pounds lost mark, having lost a total of 52 pounds! Her goal is to lose a total of 100 lbs, and she's now more than halfway there!!!
She weighs 196 lbs (she's 5 ft 9 in tall) and says that, if you'd told her she'd have achieved this this time last year, she'd have laughed at you because she was trying and doing nothing but gaining, not losing.
She loves how she's looking, and that she's wearing smaller size clothing now (lots of rescued pairs of jeans in her very near future - and she's reclaimed three pair already) but ... she says what's most important is she's doing it to be healthier so she can live longer (she's only 46 but still - she had a pulmonary embolism when she was 32, so age doesn't really matter) and be healthier for us and for DadKatt. AND for herself!
I'm so PROUD of my MomKatt!
And you know what? It really hasn't affected her lap space (that was MY biggest concern). Her lap's STILL the best and most comfortable around and I LOVE to be in it!
Her goal with WW is to make "Lifetime" status so she can be a member furever and not pay anymore dues! I know she's gonna do this in 2012!
Proud purrs,
Selina (who's already sleek)
PS - I'm also helping her with her floor work exercises. Pics ARE coming!!! Stay tuned!!
PPS - The gold charm is the one she got for completing the first 16 weeks of the program, or 4 months!!!

ReplyDeleteMomKatt says for me to pass along her thanks for your good words & your encouragement. Being so svelte as I am for all my life thus far, I can't really appreciate what it must be like to have to lose weight, but she's working VERY hard at it. And when she does floor exercises, I'm helping!
ReplyDeletePURRS!
