Thanks everyone!

I'm definately right now - and with only 28 pounds to go - I feel like I could take on the world.

Hope this feeling lasts through the weekend - when I'll be facing down the traditional Easter basket of goodies and family dinner.

Wishing us all through the upcoming holidays!

WHOOHOO!!! That is awesome! I was afraid to start mine as well - as like others so many starts & so many fails... Just takes the right "diet" to find you and you are off!

Fantastic Job!!!!

Wow, that is amazing. Congrat's. I also did not think I was capable of losing this weight. As I began to see the loss, I became stronger and had more faith in myself. This really is a battle in self-esteem and willpower, but it makes us realize that we are so much more capable of success than we ever believed.

Congratulations to you! Your post is just what I needed to read today as I'm feeling a little tired of the whole healthy eating thing. You and I have the same starting weight and because of your post I am feeling better now! Thanks!
