    Close to 100 only pics I have are in my profile of my face just have not gotten around to getting any more up. I say close becouse I dont know what I was at when I started to lose weight.

    WOW!!! Amazing Transformations!!! I am most DEF encouraged to keep pushing.!!!I always seem to fluxuate between these 30 lbs and always feel like "this is it, I just cant seem to go any further". But I SEE from you alls picture testimonials that I just need to SHUT UP and jump on the elliptical RIGHT NOW!! Thanks for the much needed "You can do it" boost Ladies amd Gents....because I was at "that point" again where the lil' evil voice inside my head was telling me that I'll never reach my goal and to go watch a movie and eat some chips! NOT TODAY!! Thanks you all!! Great post idea! I SO needed this today!!! :)
  • MEOOOOW JUST SAYIN LOL :love:
  • That's AWESOME! You have done great! You are definitely inspiring me!
  • You look fantastic!!

    :drinker: My Before/After picture is on my Profile. I think my Success began when I "Gave Up" losing weight and started Exercising for the Other Benefits - Less Pain in my Knees and More Mobility. The rest is "History".

    I don't have any pics, and I still have another 60-70lbs to go, but I def feel like a success, and if I can do it, I know you can too :happy: :flowerforyou:

    its very possible. didnt take 1 month to gain 100lbs. No reason somebody should think it will only take a few months to lose it. 1 day at a time.
