My favorite quote: " it's never too late to be what you might have been." Each new day is a do over, thank goodness.

Good job! You've lost a lot and should be proud of yourself! I know personally that menopause can affect your metabolism dramatically. NS is a good, healthy way to eat, though I've only lost a couple of pounds in six weeks. I SO know how you feel. Hang in there, just appreciate feeling good, and I'll try to do the same.…

Wonderful post! I'm going through a period of not losing myself, and your post helped me to remember what I'm supposed to be doing. Thanks, Patti

Thanks so much Wen, I'll use some of those ideas!

Great job! Keep it up!

Love all the beautiful pics!

Thanks guys! Love your support!

Finally lost a pound after 5 weeks of not losing!

You are beautiful Jen! Keep it up!
