You look great! I lost weight too- mostly from surgeries that corrected a problem. However- I just made an effort to watch my sugar intake, and kept an eye on fat.
With some things I did want, instead of opening a bag of pototoe chips, I put a handful on a paper towel. Those types of things can be addictive and mindless eating. Between the surgery, and this- I went from a size 10 to a size 6..

Wow! You look great! I love to see the difference in people when they just eat right and work out, even though all those programs like WW are great, its good to see people doing it the old fashioned way! Keep up the good work!

Congrats! You looks great.
I lost 35 lbs in 10 months back in 2005. I stayed on a 2,000 calorie a day diet. I was inspired by my doctor writing me a prescription for cholesterol pills. I never did take them, lost the weight and my cholesterol went down. Although I am not thin, I'm much happier and feel better! I eat a lot more 'carefully' now.

When my son was in the hospital for so long and we lived up there, I ate like a horse all day long but still lost 17 pounds in 7 weeks, just walking around from this place to that place at the hospital.

I have managed to keep it off but when I am working on the boat, I gain 5 to 10 pounds per 28 day trip and loose it the 28 days I am off and I keep working on trying to get a pound or two extra off until I get back to the weight I was 10 years ago.

I eat 3 meals a day on the boat but have cut out almost all the carbs and only eat meat once or twice a week. At home when I am off, I mainly only eat salads, fruits and now and then, meat.
