Default I've lost 51 pounds!

and 65 inches! I'm so pleased to be back where I was back in 2000 after I lost my first 50 pounds. It took me 8 months that time. This time? Well I had gained it all back except for about 13 pounds or so. This time I've lost all but that 13 pounds in about 4 months. I guess determination and solid commitment makes a difference.

I 'third' wanting to see before and after pics. I LOVE before and after pics!

Congratulations on a great loss!!! Yep! You're right that determination and commitment make all the difference in the world. Once you have decided that you are going to let NOTHING get in the way of your goal, you can't help but succeed.

WELL DONE!
