    Am I the only person who thinks you looked absolutely beautiful just as you were?

    Great that you are now physically much fitter and healthier of course, I 'm just saying that you were lovely before, too.

    You both look fantastic and your children are very luck you can show them a healthy way to live. Not all of us are lucky to have a partner that does it with us. Must make it so much easier.

    That is so awesome! I am looking for an elliptical now and I was curious what kind you have and if you recommend it.

    As I mentioned I did have to replace the belt after 5 years of pure torture to my elliptical but otherwise love it. I have a norditrack audioglider. I have the one with a manual incline which I think is just less to go wrong. Just decide your incline before getting on and adjust. It has great resistance programs. I use the "weight loss" program and sweat more than I do running a 5k. I got mine at sears when I was on sale and it was way less than the other ones in the market. I would buy the exact same one if the thing did on me tomorrow. I will note the only negative is that I am 5'11" so my stride is a bit longer than most. The elliptical (all ellipticals) have a much shorter stride than I do. However, as I mentioned, this wi be the case will all ellipticals. Good luck!

    If my husband was completely on board it would be so much easier. He has basically lost weight because I no longer have the bad food in the house. He still wants to go out to eat all the time. He wants to eat unhealthy food. He really does not have a desire to lose weight. However, his constant push in the opposite direction has taught me to say no. Not only to him but all the food pushers. "Oh you have to enjoy some good food occasionally," "you can have just one of grandmas delicious cookies," "let's go to dinner at [insert restaurant with all the delicious food you used to love]." I have learned to say no, to come up with excuses, to enjoy what I really want and to find a healthy option at even the worst restaurants (like outback, red lobster and Olive Garden). I have even gone a cruise and lost weight.
