    Wow, you look amazing!! And I am also inspired. I am such a lazy butt. I know what I need to do, but lack the motivation to do it. I watch all the weight loss shows too. You'd think I'd get motivated, but I have a HUGE book of excuses. I wish I had someone to do it with me (boyfriend says he will but never does). I also need to lose about 50 lbs. And you did it in about 6 months............that's awesome!!
    My current excuse is waiting for the new gym to open that we signed up with back in March. They were supposed to open in April. Then it was postponed to May, then June, and well.........they still are not open yet. All the equipment is in, so I'm hoping to hear from them soon.

    Congrats on your success!!!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Hey, we could do it together - motivate each other long distance!

    I would love that! I think someone did start a thread to do that, but it died. And it is very easy for me to make excuses over the internet too. LOL I need someone in person to kick my butt in gear. But online motivation could help. It will be much easier once the gym opens though. It's too darn hot to exercise outside. And since I'm paying for the gym.......I WILL use it!!

    I need to figure out where I can put my stationary bike where it won't be in the way, but WILL be usable in this apartment. I managed to use it successfully without getting too bored if I did so while watching something on TV, have to figure out some way of doing that here!

    Wow...congrats! You look great!!!

    I struggle with my weight. It seems I am on a new diet every year.

    I did low carb for a year and a half and lost about 30 pounds. Then I somehow strayed and am struggling once again.

    Did you follow a specific plan?

    Congrats! You look amazing! Younger, healthier, happier. I'm on WW and it's working but it's a slow go. I lost 60 lbs several years ago and need to loose a few more to get to goal. It really isn't about "dieting". It's about getting sick and tired of being sick and tired! It's a lifestyle change. I know pizza will always be a treat and not part of my lifestyle. It's about choices.
    Taz, if you don't mind the hike, the WW meetings I go to are right next to the old El Balazo! I know you know where that is! LOL!
    One of the FEW things I like about getting older is you ARE wiser! I'm not eating differently to change how other's see me. I'm doing it to feel better. Just me. And people DO get jealous and try to undermine you. You just got to stick to your guns. I don't tell people I'm on WW. I just say what I want and that's it. And I totally agree with you that it reflects on other parts of your life. No, I don't want to supersize anything. And NO, you can't dismiss my opinions.
    It also helps that I'm doing it with a friend. I'm sort of accountable that way. If you need some support Kim, or anyone else for that matter...please PM me.
    Excellent job Kim! Love the perky do as well! Keep it up!
