Wow, Beanie! How great you look! I've got 19 pounds until I reach my goal of losing 42 pounds, so your pics of your 42 lb. loss have special meaning for me. What an inspiration you are for me! Thank you for posting your pictures and for all the work you do as co-moderator of this forum.

That is just wonderful! Your visuals are so inspiring. Thanks for sharing. Your hard work has certainly made a difference.

Thanks, everyone! I appreciate the comments and I must say it is so nice to come here and get the support from you all! It just motivates me more to stay on track...I don't notice a huge difference in myself...there are subtle things like loose clothing and such, but that is it...I am happy though as I received two compliments at work yesterday about the loss...that made me float on air the rest of the day! LOL

Hugs everyone and thanks again!!

Wow, Beanie!! There really is a big difference. You took years off when you shed those pounds!!!

It is hard to see the changes in yourself. When you have to look in the mirror every day, the changes are so gradual... It is nice to have those folks at work notice, because they are REALLY looking and noticing. That's a good and honest measure of real change.

You are looking great, luminous, energetic, healthy... and ready to throw back a few shot of tequila with some buddies!

Great job! You started just about where I am starting now. You are an inspiration. Are you exercising quite a bit? Keep up the good work!!

WOWZA WOWZA!!!! You look amazing!!! And you've got SUCCESS written all over your face- you've always had a beautiful face and now your features are really shining! Beautiful eyes- cheekbones- everything!!! You should be sooo proud!!! What an inspiration...thanks so much for sharing- it really helps me stay focused on seeing the "big" picture- we may lose the weight slowly but in a couple of months there can be a drastic change!

WAY TO GO!!!!!!

Oh wow, you guys are just a huge boost for my ego!!

Thanks again for all the wonderful compliments!! I do appreciate them...When I am home in sweats, I really don't see the difference, but once I am at work and I go in the bathroom, I can really see the change in the mirror...I do look different...I think I look much better...DH says I look much younger too!


tksbaskets, I don't excersize as much as I should, but I at least make it a point to do weights on each night before bed...I am not sure if that is what is working or not, but I like to do them anyway!

I just love this board, you all are so wonderful to me! Thanks again for everything...I would simply be lost without you all!!
