A weight range is good & simply maintaining is good ~ especially with all that you've got going on! I completely understand your body image issues, as well as your obsessive tendencies ~ been there, done that (& still there w/the obsessive stuff!) Also, ditto on what ValleyGirl said!{amy}https://www.blogger.com/profile/09363848196111335782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347737109684156629.post-79473402467405328842010-02-10T18:52:52.105-05:002010-02-10T18:52:52.105-05:00I didn't meet my goals this challenge but I di...I didn't meet my goals this challenge but I did actually change my mindset (for the most part) and that feels so good (for me, even more important than the # on the scale right now).

Your attitude improved SO much, and yeah, you might be a little obsessive, but I don't think there's anything wrong with that as long as you are healthy.<br /><br />Christie and Thea are so wonderful and I love them with all my heart!
