Great job at losing 54 pounds and at making such positive lifestyle changes. I think the old pic and the new pic so look alike. Keep going--you are on a roll...

You've done a fantastic job in just over 1 year. Great accomplishment Good on ya.

Especially important victory. Good for you.

You've really been working, to accomplish all this just since January. Well done. Keep up the good work.

Good one -- Good job.

Indeed - I do see the difference. You are doing great. Keep up the good work.

Well, bless your heart. You are one strong man. Thank you for sharing your whole story with us. Wishes for success in the surgeries and many years of good health ahead. :drinker:

You can send me a pal request. I'm 65, my cousin in Iowa told me about this site and I think it is fabulous. Everyone is so nice and so supportive. I've lost 20 pounds since I started on the first day of May and I think about 10 pounds since I started with MFP. Here's a nice recipe I've tried and its pretty darn good.…

You've done a great job and got an education at the same time. Congrats on all levels. :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

Good job. I'll bet you feel really good now. You've really worked hard and it shows!

The ultimate NSV! Now this is a success story. Congatulations and best wishes to you both.:heart: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

Learn to appreciate that unfamiliar feeling of your stomach stirring. Remember how it felt when you'd overeaten? This feeling is more like a tickle that reminds you that you are actually eating for fuel rather than fulfillment. I like to think it is the feeling of the fat burning off.

You have truly succeeded. WTG.

You ARE something special and you've done it all yourself. Congratulations and thank you for sharing your story. Oh, by the way, you are a good writer -- see something special. :flowerforyou: :wink: :happy:

In just under a year and a half????? Wow, you look terrific. Hope you are feeling as good as you look. :flowerforyou:

Terrific job! You look wonderful, bet you feel great too. :flowerforyou:

I'd say you'd made better than "pretty good progress" -- great accomplishment.

For the beauty aspect, have you tried putting the avocado pit back in the guac once you've mixed it all together? It magically helps retain the green color for a while. I don't know how but it works. This sounds delicious. I'm gonna try it. Thanks.

As you can see, we have lots of company. I'm 65 and have lost 7 pounds on MFP and 16 pounds since I began this effort on the :flowerforyou: first day of Spring. I've had a couple of setbacks of pain with overexerting but sticking with the calorie counting alone has really helped and I'm going to add in more activity --…
