I come here and read about your successes, your hard work and the payoff at the end of all that sweat. I see the pictures and I am thrilled. I don't even know you, I'll never meet you in person or talk to you on the phone. But I am grateful for your.

I am thankful that I am not alone in this journey---for a journey it is. A sweaty-up-and-down-thrilling-discouraging-nail-biting ride!

I've been on this particular ride for 56 days now and I've lost 17 pounds. I feel better. I look better. I AM BETTER! :)

Thank you all for motivating me with your amazing stories, your honesty, your pictures and your examples.

I stand in awe of you :drinker:

    Congratulations! How did you lose so much so quickly? I've been here almost 60 days and I've lost 5? I'd love any tips!

    What a nice thing to post, to everybody lucky enough to read this :smile: . I see a lot of negativity on the forums at times, so reading this was a breath of fresh air. Thanks to YOU for putting a smile on my face today. Congrats on your successes, and here's to many, many more! :drinker:

    I think the reason I've lost 17 so far is due to the fact that I have a lot of weight to lose. It tends to come off faster on those of us who are overly 'fluffly'. :wink: At first anyway.

    My food diary is open as is my exercise stuff. I've been drinking rivers of water and sweating out of lot of it in strength/weight training and cardio. I can look at the scale for two weeks and not see it move and then BOOM it slides down the next week.

    I'm not a slave to the numbers on my scale. I do what I know I have to in the knowledge that it will all work out in the end.

    Again---thanks to you all and your great stories and motivation. It means the world to me and to so many others I'm sure!
