    Wow! What wonderful job she did. Shedding the weight also shaved years off her appearance. Tell her she looks beautiful!

    WOW!!! Holy cow your mom looks great, and so much younger. I'm sure you are proud of her, losing 90 lbs is no easy task. She should be so proud of herself. Not only does she look so much better, I'm sure she feels great.

    How cool is that?!? Your mom took charge and she looks great! Thank her for being willing to share. Us "mature" gals are always looking for inspiration that yes, you can do this at any age.

    (In a perverse way, my mom is my inspiration -- but it is because I see what will be me in 25 years if I don't exercise, eat right and take better care of myself. I can't change her but I can change me.)

    AWESOME!

    My mom is my inspiration - but she has her pictures up at work - she works at a doctor's office and there is a sign next to the picture -

    1993 - "Diabetic, no energy, eating boxes of oreo's for dinner"
    1997 - "90 pounds down, diet and exercise. No surgery, no fad diets, no pills. No more diabetic meds either!"

    She had lost a total of 97 pounds. She did gain some back over the years, but I remember this most because I was really young at the time and she would tell me - "I've lost both you and your brother! (I was 8, my brother was 5)".

    Dear Mom,

    WOW! You look awesome. What touches me to my soul, is that you have also changed the life of your daughter. She sees what a change in diet and exercise can do for your life.

    What an inspiration you are. Not only for her but for ME!


    Lookin' gooood:smokin:
