I realized that I forgot to post my weight loss for the last week. As of today, I have lost 60 pounds. 60 pounds. I cannot even wrap my head around that number.
When I hit 50 pounds down a month or so ago, I began thinking about a way to commemorate the milestone. In the past, I celebrated accomplishments with food so I thought about a non-food celebration for a long time.
Some of the other bloggers I read have gone on trips, bought new clothes, learned to salsas dance or even gone sky-diving. All of those are great, but they just don't feel like me. So, I went with something a little more personal. And a LOT more permanent.
Yep, I got a tattoo. It says Strength, and its the first of three words that will eventually make a circle. I will get the other two words when I hit the second and third 50. I LOVE IT! I found a wonderful tattoo artist named Alli at Irezumi Tattoos here in Kansas City, and she did an amazing job. It didn't hurt nearly as much I had anticipated; the first 20 seconds or so were rough but then it was just annoying.
So, I've got ink. Hee.
