    Thanks for all the good wishes, but all I can see is the stubborn pounds that remain!

    That's life!!

    I thank all on this list who have offered me advice, information and support, and hope these pics give encouragement to board members. Yes, it does work.

    If I can lose another 8 or 10 lbs I might be brave enough to appear in shorts or swimwear. What a thought!!!

        How tall are you, Higgies?

        Over 6ft, I guess.

        And you look extremely fit!

            Yes, 5 ft 10in+, that I now understand, Higgies. I was looking at your shoulders and noting how muscular you are in comparison to me - at 200lb and under 6 ft your are very powerfully built. Not someone to argue with, Sir!

            Thanks for the encouragement. Our Base Swimming pool closed around Christmas which was a bad deal for me, but I have just had some work done on my mountain bike and I am enjoying exploring the country lanes round these parts now the weather is improving.

                    you are looking good. I got the last pounds to go, but still working on the tummy muscles, that seem bent on remaining as stubborn flab.

                      Glad to finally to get a better image of you. Great work in slimming down and getting that flat stomach back. The final pounds may be tough, but I know they will eventually succumb just like the first ones did for you. Good job!
