    Nice job! I like your goal of doing the marathon. I bet you never thought you'd be doing that or even thought about thinking about doing it.


    I'm going to silently hate the fact that your weight came off ever so quickly because of the genetic/gender things you got on your side

                Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

                      Must be a genetic thing (rather than gender) otherwise I wouldn't also be thinking, "Man, that's twice my weight loss in the same time frame..."

                      But I am happy for Moose and look forward to his thoughts leading up to and immediately following the marathon as Julie's description of her marathon have me thinking about a new long-term goal...
