    Thanks for sharing!! My "I have to do this" goal is 80 pounds in 13 months. (I'm cheesy...next July I want to wrap up 40 items in a box & give it to myself to represent 40 pounds lost for ME and wrap another one & present it to my girls to signify 40 pounds lost for THEM). Really I'd love to have a box for each girl & me...but....that's a dream not a set goal. You ARE an inspiration! Stories like this prove it to me that I can do it too!

    You've done well...you're very lovely and YES inspiring, whether you might agree or not! ;)

    You look simply gorgeous...that seems to be the main word coming out of our mouths after viewing you transformation. I don't believe anyone ever means harm when saying this so I hope you'll take it as shared.. But you look like 2 different ppl..... Perhaps it's self acceptance that's glowing through the photos.

    Can I ask how many calories a day you were consuming and how many days and length of time you were walking to achieve that goal in 11 months? You look absolutely stunning. :) A wonderful accomplishment.

    Hi, thank you! I was eating around a thousand calories a day and walking Monday to Friday normally , usually about an hours walk! 3 or 4 miles! Walk much more now but eat more aswell! Because I was on a low calorie diet I was getting monthly blood tests off my doctor! I also have an underactive thyroid xx

    Goodness me - you look so different now!
    I bet you feel like a different person too - and mighty proud of your achievements I hope :-)
    You're a real inspiration!
    How did you feel at the start of your journey, when you saw such a long road looming ahead?
    I have lost 12lb of the 60lb I need to reach a healthy BMI, and at the start I was terrified of the journey. Now I am starting to enjoy it as I reach mini-targets.
