I have lost 35 pounds so far in the past 6 months, and am very happy and grateful for this! each ounce has been a major struggle, and i recently came off a verrrry long plateau, but i held my ground, and feel very good about that too. (i still have about 70 more pounds to go, but i really feel like i can stay the course now after seeing my success these past 6 months.) well, thanks for listening to my acknowledging this victory "out loud." i appreciate it!
