My 12 yr old grandson weighs the same as I've lost so far.

Today, I carried him around on my back - and I could barely move for the weight....... my daughter took a photo, if I can get it onto photobucket or somewhere I'll try to add it later.

It's really put into perspective just how far I've come, and also shocked me that I was walking around everyday with that additional weight on my body.

It's made me even more determined now to reach my target, which would be the equivalent in weight of my grandson, his brother AND sister!
