Six month update

Wow, Rich, that's fantastic! You're an inspiration to all of us. Terry

Many thanks to everyone *****sponded here for your kind words. This board offers so much help and encouragement to everyone, it gives me one more reason to be glad I'm from Illinois! Thanks again!

Thats so amazing!! I hope I have lots of success like you. In the beginning did you ever feel like it wasn't working as fast as you wanted it to? You are awesome!!

I can't say that I ever felt like it wasn't working like it should. This site is so tremendous at providing information, I felt like I had a very good idea of what to expect. I wasn't quite prepared for the amount of pain in the very early going but then, I'm quite the sissy when it comes to pain. My one surprise was when I hit a plateau in only the third month. Didn't lose a thing for about 2-1/2 weeks. When I did start down, though, the loss came back in a spurt, kind of like a rubber band stretched tight. I knew then that plateaus would happen (and heaven knows I've experienced more since then!), but I didn't expect it so soon. If it happens to you, just be confident that it WILL pass. Best of luck to you. This is a great life-changer, and I'm sure you're going to be happy with this choice. Rich
