Congrats are in order, Cassini! What a great feeling it is to realize how much weight you've lost.

Aah, I remember my Senior year in academy (with graduation coming up) I went on a diet of nothing but bread, water, grapefruit and multi-vitamins for about two months. With the help of extra exercise, I lost a lot of weight, more than I thought I might. I don't recommend it though. It took a LOT of discipline and determination, it was REALLY HARD, and even though I was getting my grains (with traces amount of fat), fruit and vitamins, I know I wasn't getting all the nutrients I needed. But oh, I remember how excited I was when I put on a certain dress and *gasp!* it was BIG on me. I ran up and down the hallway of my dormitory, telling all my friends, and showing them what the dress looked like on me now. That was such a great feeling.

I hope I'll have that feeling again someday. Hopefully soon. I can tell I've gained weight while on my vacay (doing little else but chill, and also cooked/baked some sinful food), hopefully going back to work will help. But I rrreeeaaalllyyyy should start my power-walking again. Wish me luck.
