Default 58 pounds are outa here!

Well, I just got an e-mail that this board generates "checking on me". Life has been super hectic so I am sorry for the lag.........

I started in October of 2007 for my 30th birthday. Weighing in at 176 at my highest. YIKES! I am now at 118! CRAZY, RIGHT?

I really really want some before and afters and I think I will post them this week. I see myself in pictures now and it is crazy. But the GREAT WAY!

My original goal was 145........then 135........then 130.....and 118 just kind of happened! I am 5'6" so now lower for me. All about maintenance.

Good luck all! You CAN do this!!!!!

LOVE~JEN
176 to 118 in around 1 year.......(need a new siggy it has been to long since I posted)

Jen - what an inspiration! Thanks for posting and please post your photos! I'm also 5'6" and my goal is 150, which would be great, but I'd actually like to go down a little further, like you did. Keep up the good work!!!

Way to go Jen! Quite an inspiration to us all!
Any tips for staying on plan and not bouncing back like many people do?

Way to go... and well I likely should not say this but its ok that you are busy living life instead of focusing on weight loss. I think we all want that... to get on with the business of living life out from under the cloud if obesity. I am glad it has happened for you... we all do want more details... think about how it just happened for you... we would love to partake in that part of yor journey.

BRAVO!!!!
Oh and welcome back!

Kathy
