Don;t eat rice!! Not a good thing... Linda

Way to go Stayce!! I know how you feel I got into some of my sisters clothes recently. and I bought size L turtle necks at a garage sale and was amazed I could wear them! Onederland (feels more like OZ) is just 16 pounds away for me and it is getting very exciting!!! Yesterday I walked to much and hurt my knee again reminding me that I will be getting it replaced soon One of the reasons I started loosing in the first place.. You keep it up girl!! Linda

My mom for the FIRST time in her life gave me her size 12 clothes. We have never been able to ever, ever, ever share clothing. Makeup, shoes, jewlery, but never CLOTHING!! She is more like a size 8 but had some beauitful stuff from when she was bigger. I put on the size 12 black jacket that goes with a suit and while I couldnt button it I still got it on my body which is pretty damn amazing to me. In a couple months I will be able to wear the whole size 12 ensemble and button it. It is a beautiful suit from Jones NY. Has pants or skirt option. She also gave me a size 12 purple wool coat that fits perfect right now!!! I also inheritied two beautiful cashmere sweaters that fit perfect. Just a regular Misses size L. Not 2XL, not 1XL, not XL, not a Women's L, but a MISSES size L. I FIT INTO MY MOTHERS CLOTHING!! This is a huge deal for me and I am so excited. Very, very, cool. Keep in mind I started out 6 months ago a size 22-24. I'm 5'4 and about 215 today.. 36%BF - great muscle base from working out so much. Hoping to get down to under 20% BF. Onerland I can almost see you over the horizon. Here I come!! These days when I catch my refelction walking buy a window or look in them mirror I finally feel like a more normal "healthy-sized" person both inside and out. This journey has been so worth it. Blood pressure has gone from a high of 150/110 to a new low of 116/68!h Happy 6 month re-birthdays all!!

Linda, I have to say, I have always said life begins at 50!!! Okay for me it was 52 but thats ok. Life is the best now then it has been in 52 years. I have lost 102 lbs and went from size 32 to 22. All you guys are doing great and remember size is only a number. My big reward is I feel so healthy and am not ashamed to look in the mirror for once in my life. I will never be a Twiggy and don't exspect to be. But I am healthy and happy!!!!! See all lighter. Joanne

I've seen many really cute profile pages. Where do they come from and how do you get them???? Teresa
