Thanks for all the wonderful comments! For those of you who are just starting out...I remember very well how hard it is at first....but hang in there, it won't be long and you'll be posting your 'I reached my goal' story, too! To everybody else...congrats on all your successes!
Was going through all my digital pictures and I have a few before pictures and some during pictures but my most recent ones were taken in September and I've lost around 10 pounds since then...so I am going to have to have somebody take a few new ones of me and get them up for everyone to see.
So far maintenance is going well. I had a couple days over the Thanksgiving holiday that I ate some things that definitely wouldn't be considered healthy, but instead of beating myself up over it I just put it behind me and got right back on track and didn't have any problem doing so. I also kicked up my exercise a little bit and ended up not gaining anything and my clothes just keep getting looser even though I'm not really losing much anymore.
Thanks again for all the comments and hope everybody is having a great day!
u are such an inspiration....!!
