Why do I get so excited?

Here is an update on the Raw diet. I was really enjoying the back of my eyelids when my cute baby girl came in and said mom the sun is awake, you have to wake up to. I'm thinking why does she have to be so cute and I know I have a lot to do so I better get up, again still fighting the whole depression thing but not getting out of bed seems to be the worst part. It's that or I am just too darn addicted to sleep. So I get up, prep for the shower and decide to step on the oh so resented scale. And Wala...I am down to 261!!!! Tada, down 15 lbs total now. Now to get under the 260. And please, I know the numbers are daunting but I have stopped hiding and am being completely and bluntly honest. So why do I get so excited? Well because for the longest time I haven't been able to lose any weight or stick to any life style change as far as eating goes. And the greatest thing is the whole family is doing it and they love it. So that is why I get so excited.
