Well... I started back in October... When putting on my coaching shirt for my Son's football team involved lots of streching material and me holding my breath the whole time. I hated it and that damn shirt... So here it is starting and along the way to today...

July 80lbs... Today

I need to thank all of my friends on here for helping me every day! You all inspire me and push me to get my *kitten* to the gym when I don't want to... or run longer then I ever thought I would... skip treats, desserts and even drinks to keep my calories in place for the day!

    Wow! You look wonderful! Great job! And how the heck do you post pictures in your posts. I can't figure it out. I wanted to post some biking pics after my ride the other day and just couldn't do it. I'm computer challenged.

    Fabulous! Now, the largest challenge faces you. That is, keeping those fat pounds from piling back on. You may want to consider accurately weighing, measuring, leveling off all excess quantities and recording it all on here...for the rest of your life. Take it from one who's been there and done that far too many times. When you drop the program and think you can keep it off without doing as you have to lose those 80 lbs., think again~~~they'll be right back on you in less than a year.

    Congratulations. You look great! I know how hard that is - I started last October also and have lost 123 pounds so far with still more to go. But it sure feels good doesn't it - WTG!
