Julie, you look fantastic in your new pics!! You've done such a terrific job transforming yourself. You were one of the first people I met here, and I was inspired by the dedication you had. Plus, your knowledge of this WOE has been a treasure to me and others. You've always been an inspiration.
I just can't get over how amazing you look. You are my atkins inspiration! When I get a little down I look at you pictures and it always picks me up! I love your last outfit, too!

Julie you look so awesome! A true inspiration to us all! You have really made some great life changes for yourself.
Prior to moving to MT where did you live & what did you do? You say that you started teaching classes at the gym, I just wondered what you did before. Or is that something you do on the side.
I think that everything you are doing is just wonderful ...keep up the good work.

Shauna--I'm originally from Michigan, but moved out to Montana with my boyfriend about 3 years ago.
I'm a music teacher--teaching classes at the gym is just something I do for fun! They needed an instructor, and heck, I'm always there anyway, so I figured I might as well get paid to work out and offer some more variety (for classes) at the gym.
I really wasn't trying to be nosey. It sure sounded like it though when I re-read my e mail. I have heard of a lot of people doing that with the gym. It is a good way to get your membership paid for & earn some extra cash + exercise. I have often thought about doing the same thing ...but I still need to be the student for now.
A move from MI to MT was not to bad for you then huh? The cold weather and such? I have to admit MT is one of my most favorite places in the world. That is where I went for my honeymoon last summer. We went rafting in Glacier and the roads were all lined with daisies. It is really a slice Gods country isnt it.
Well keep up the good work Julie & have a great weekend.

OMG!!! I CANNOT beleive I missed this thread! Sorry Julie. This is exactly what happens when you're away for so long.
We are all extremely proud of you hon. Thanks again for not only being an inspiration but an unconditional friend and advisor/mentor to so many of us here at ADBB.
Sending you lots of love and lots of congrats....
