      Fantastic job!!! Your dedication to health and fitness is awesome. Who would've known how much your life would have changed once you made that commitment to do your first race? I remember those days you were out running in the snow. And there were a lot of them! It's been so great to see your progression throughout the weeks and months. I'm so happy for your success. You are beautiful, inside and out. It is such an honor to call you friend. Now go have yourself a clementine! ???? <3 ????????⭐❤

      Wow! I am inspired. I've been away from MFP for some time and I'm feeling like a blob. My goal is 40 lbs. I am bigger than you in your vacation pics. I thought those pictures weren't even bad! Wow! What a transformation! Running... I just don't know. Congrats! You should be so proud!!
