    Love every word and pixel. :drinker: :flowerforyou: :heart: :love:
    You will notice a progression…as I lost my weight, I also lost my clothes in my pics…it came with increased confidence. Some may not ‘get it’, but going from someone who was too embarrassed to post a pic of herself at all, to someone confident enough to post pics showing skin is a huge deal for me.

    When I joined, the only picture I was willing to show was a closeup of the tattoo on my calf, so... I relate. :smile:

    What? How do you look so amazing with detoxes, keytones and 3 day diets? And dairy - the horror!

    You have done a fantastic job - I can't believe that you were able to do that in a year! :drinker:

    I love that you want to share your knowledge and experience with the rest of us - way to pay it foward!
