Re: GOAL!! 160+ lbs. lost, happy as a clam!
Thank you, all, for the kind words. It has been quite a journey. Some pot holes and speed bumps along the way, but I wouldn't change a thing if I had it to do over again... well, maybe I would have started sooner.

Re: GOAL!! 160+ lbs. lost, happy as a clam!
Oh my goodness! What an inspiration. I have about 200 lbs to lose and, God willing, I'll have the strength, perserverance and "Stick-to-it-iveness" that is required to really do this. I don't want to resort to surgery so seeing your success is so helpful and encouraging. Thanks for sharing these!!~Sarah
