Great job.

Your measurements also answered a concern of mine - my neck never seems to shrink, you started pretty much the same as me, so now I know the kneck won't shrink much... I should have measured as many areas as you did, but I didn't. Although, I do know I've lost in all the areas, would be nice to know how much... I think I will start tracking that now...

Thanks for the inspiration and keep up the great work!

Thank you!
I was a little frustrated by the neck thing at first since the 1.5 inches it's gone down since I started was lost about 40 pounds ago - since then, it's stayed the same. It looks a lot different (longer and leaner), but it is still the same measurement it has been since I was about 240-250 pounds.

Also, I've gotten some messages asking how I have lost the weight - no magic formula, just eating healthy, well-balanced meals and snacks (fresh fruits and veggies, whole grains, lean proteins, healthy fats), drinking lots of water, and exercising regularly.

You look awesome! This success story makes me rethink giving u after 20 lbs and keep working toward my goal of 125! I've got about 75 lbs to go and am dreading every single bit of it! This is not the attitude to have! How did you find the courage and willpower to keep going!
