So, as of this morning I've lost 9lbs since 16 days ago when I began. Today we went for a picnic date with some friends and their kiddos and the two friends who were there when I showed up made me feel so great! I got off my bike and was getting my children out of the trailer and they started talking about how great I look and that my face looks thinner and I'm looking healthier. SO nice to have other people notice! But the best part is that their comments still don't match how proud I am and how great I feel about myself and THAT'S why this is going to work. It's for ME!!!!! :happy: :happy: :happy: :happy:

    Congratulations. It does feel good when people notice and comment but you're right, the way you feel about your self and more important. You have every right to feel proud of yourself. Keep up the good work. :flowerforyou:

    Well, I think it makes a big difference that I have 3x as much weight to lose as you do :wink: My loss will slow down any time I'm sure.


    Thanks so much guys, this site has been a WONDERFUL thing for me. Totally the missing piece to the puzzle. Well, that and truly self-propelled motivation :tongue:

    I was getting very discouraged, because I wasn't seeing any results. When I got up this morning... I stepped on the scale and I've lost three pounds!!! And looking at myself I can see the difference in my back and abs... so I am more motivated now than ever!!

    Congrats and a big WOO HOO to everyone else as well!!!

    :flowerforyou:
