"So, I'm very proud that I didn't let sadness destroy everything I've worked for. If this was years past I would have fallen completely apart. I'm just so over the pity party mentality, it never has gotten me anywhere."

This is a lesson we all need to learn. Thanks for sharing.

Congrats

50? Hun, that looks more like a hundred. Amazing transformation. Keep up the great work.

Congrats. You look great. Keep up the great work.

I'm sorry to hear about your father--- it is good to know that you were able to get through the troubled times without doing yourself any further harm by going back on the diet! Good for you!

leia, yeah it looks like more even to me, but unfortunately for me I still have 49 pounds to go. Just be thankful I didn't have on a sports bra or my shirt pulled up or something because it doesn't look like 50 pound gone then! The gut shot would have been enough to get me banned from blogger.

Everyone, thanks for all the wonderful comments and support. This forum completely rocks!
