    Great job! I just lost 46lb, from a starting weight of 240. It is amazing what your body can push through. You're doing great and I know you'll make it to the weight you want.
    You can add me if you want.

    Hang tight, Dona. It's tuff for us all. I'll look forward to your post at 61 lost (I started at 388 and just crossed over the 50 lb lost goal. My target is 275, so I'm almost half way there.)
