I hear you on the daunting part, you need to stoke that fire in your heart my friend.

QuilterInVA : Truly magnificent achievement, not to belittle others and there own triumphs but i read some posts where people talk about losing 20 or 25 pounds as a huge journey and how they were so torn apart by it, i think the term gets used way to carelessly and diminishes its true nature and deep meaning, your accomplishment, i know was one of the most difficult things to master and took literally years of determination and was the culmination of your entire worth " soul searching / renewal / rebirth ". You are the epitome of inspiration.

I guess when I saw a significant drop when waiting a month, I felt so good about it, it really helped me to keep going... It wasn't easy but it WAS worth it!

Catmandu...ok that actually would kinda be cool! lol

Resolute you are so profound. I really like it!! I imagine you with a tweed blazer and professor glasses surrounded by bookshelves in a dim study...like an anthropology professor....sorry i am really visual LOL
