I lost 7 pounds this week
After a couple of "why did the scale do THAT?" weeks I was finally able to see a positive drop in the scale number.

Total of 137 pounds gone now! :)

3. Wow! That's incredible!
Insirational! 137 pounds - you are to be commended.

I've lost at least 15 recently, maybe a little more - just loss of appetite for the most part. I could stand to lose more.

Congrats MaineDem :toast:

8. Thank you
I have a "few" pounds still to go. At least my motivtion is still there (after a year and a half) and that helps a great deal.

19. Thanks everyone!
Now I have to find something to wear to a banquet in 2 weeks. I know John Kerry and Howard Dean will be there and probably more candidates. And I have nothing to wear..... "whine"

But thank you all for the good wishes. :)
