    You are a beautiful woman. And a very lucky one too. I used to have a beloved beagle named Bailey. Good luck in your continued journey!

    I was going to comment to say your pants DO look baggy! There is definitely some progress there and it shows :) Good work! Thanks for sharing your pictures of your weight loss so far along with your little family :)

    ps.- the rose is gorgeous as well!

    The rose is absolutely beautiful, and you are too!
    Congratulations! Continued success to you!
    For me there is great improvement in my knees just from losing weight. I wish you the best of luck in getting relief from your bad knees. It can be miserable, and you look so happy!

    Congratulations on the Loss, and on all the Progress you are making!! Poor Bailey really does look sad and Confused in that Photo!! I agree with Ed, but Purple is My Favorite color so I might be a Little Bit Prejudiced!!

    What a lovely, inspiring post. I have not read one yet with a photo of the supporting partner. What a loving tribute. Clearly you two deserve each other :heart: You look wonderful, and your success goes so much deeper than your weight loss. Thank you for sharing your story. Yours is what makes me want to keep going. Enjoy all of the kudos. You deserve it!

    I'm so happy for you. Your husband is a lucky man because you are taking steps to make sure that you two can still enjoy life. Your pictures are amazing and the JOY that shows in your face is the biggest inspiration of all. My mom fought her weight (as I do) all her life but just couldn't keep it under control. I lost her when she was only 66. The gift you are giving yourself and your family is the gift of you - the greatest gift of all. Keep it up!

    Your post stopped me in my tracks. My mom also died at age 66, but she never had a weight problem. That made it harder for her to understand a daughter who was over-weight from age 11 on. My mom was thin growing up and only weighed 128 when fully pregnant.

    66 years was not enough for a woman with a such a wonderful gift. She left the world so many new rose varieties. Her unnamed test roses were still been introduced 20 years after she passed; and she is still acknowledged as one of America's greatest rose hybridizers.

    This is my favorite photo of my mom...Dee Bennett.

    Thank you for sharing a picture of Dee Bennett... I actually remember reading about her on GardenWeb last year when I was deciding to plant roses in my backyard. Unfortunately, in our northern climate (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada), the selection is very limited, and my densely shaded backyard doesn't help.

    On another note, I do wonder if those 20 other blouses will be too loose by the time they arrive. :wink:
