Oh, I'm no vet. I won't consider myself a vet until at least 3 years. LOL Probably five. I think it really is a lifelong committment. Thank you for your sweet words. Really, they mean a lot. My hope is that those just starting out KNOW it's possible. I know so many people helped me realize that when I was just getting started and it really helped to hear that people WERE succeeding. Xoxo

 yahoooooooo!!!

this is so fantastic to see!  I follow your posts closely cuz you started at near the point I started at - same height, only a few pounds heavier (although not quite shaped the same) - so looking at your pics gives me hope about my progress when I finally get surgery and get going!

You can totally, absolutely, 100% do it. I have faith in you. Just commit yourself to it and live the dream, baby :)

Seriously though... it really is hard and it really is a lot of work, but it's worth it... so so so worth it.
