3 1/2 years out and doing great!! (pics in post)

Fabulous! I remember you right back when you started out - what a transformation!

Don't be a stranger! So many of us vets move on into our new, slim lives and then it looks to newcomers as if there are very few success stories.

Good to see you posting. You look great!

Hey good to "see" you Kari!!!  You still look awesome - heck - if my tummy looked ANYWHERE near as good as yours does, I wouldn't even bother with a tummy tuck (mine is a SCARY sight, LOL).....and I know you've said you aren't a smiler in pics, but I think I see a crack of one in the first  (and you've got lots to smile about, so it's a good thing, LOL).

OMG, seeing your pictures makes me so ashamed of myself. I originally lost nearly, 100 pounds, and then rediscovered, Starbucks and chocolate. I gained most of my weight back. I recently discovered I have diabites, and have begin losing again. I really need another fill, but can't afford it. I am trying to get back on track. I have lost about 17 pounds since I found out I have diabetes added to the few pounds I didn't gain back put me down 39 pounds since I had my surgery. But I so want to be back slimmer and healthy again. I have begun to post back on the board again. Hopefully it will help. I didn't mean to turn this into something about me. Sorry, you look awesome and seeing you makes me want to get back on track....Thanks so much!!!!!

You are one Hot Mama!
Wow!  Great legs!
Thanks for sharing!

Hi Kari,

I remember you back when you were dealing with the transfer addiction.  It made a big impression on me.  Congrats on 1 year sober!!!  Also, congrats on maintaining your weight loss.
