Erica, thank you!!! Yes, you're right 151 pounds is a whole person...it's hard to believe it when I look at it that way. Yes, I have some before and during pictures...not many before because I avoided the camera as much as I could but I have some. I have to get my husband to take a new one shortly and then....I will have to figure out how to download them to this board. I really don't know how to do that yet. I just noticed your pics on another thread...how did you copyright them??
Nyna, Thank you so much!!! It has been a lot of hard work and has taken much dedication indeed! For me it hasn't been just about losing weight, it has also been learning another way which is healthy to deal with past stresses as well as present stresses that come my way and dealing with them in a healthy way instead of turning to food for a quick comfort. I have learned a great deal about myself through this time and I'm sure there is a whole lot more to learn!
Thank you Misplaced Southerner, I appreciate your encouragement....I hope you are right and that I can reach my ultimate goal...or at least very close....I am indeed determined. Thank you for stopping by and sharing my updated news.
Georgiana, thank you for stopping in and reading my update regarding how things are progressing, I am truly grateful for the support!
Hugs to you all!
