I don't know now, your avatar is pretty schnazzy! I would not like to do a neck down comparison. I am sagging like Jezzebel's great great grandmother... Especially my manboobies.. I really hate the sagging, and its only gonna get worse! Whatever Jan 2 brings, I'm claming it and pushing forward. I would also like to tell everyone we should give ourselves some kind of credit because we are doing SOMETHING for the better, regardless of goal met or not.  Alot of people don't "turn the page". -Bud

Shari LOL! I can't get them down in there yet, but I can definitely tuck my stomach in all 4 pockets. Cargo khaki's would be nice then I could fill all 8 pockets! Let's just say I have 3 belly buttons, and 2 petrude. -Bud

I have an upper and lower gut (I am part snowman!) and thighs that clap when I walk-- I pretend they're just happy I am exercising so they're applauding...then, I throw up in my mouth a little. :)

My goal was to get to 300 by the New year and I'm 9 pounds above it, so my goal kicked my ass.

Keep on movin', Neener-- you can do it! As long as the progression is downward, there's hope!

 I didn't set an end of the year goal, but I'm down 30 lbs.  I could really have done better, but the last couple months I haven't been putting forth enough effort.  I hope to change that with the new year.   I should set one for this year and see how I do.  I'll have to think on it and decide on a number.  I know I would like to have quite a bit off before next summer.  Being fat when it's hot SUCKS! I am grateful for the friends I have made on this board.  I know you guys have kept me going with your encouragement. HAPPY NEW YEARS TO EVERYONE!!!  Ball Drop  Brenda

As i recall, I am one pound down from the weight I was when I set the goal - did NOT lose the other nine pounds I thought I would.  I am 185 as of last week. goal should have been 176. At one point, i did reach 180.  This makes sense as mentally, I am at odds whether to be in maintenance or go for the gold. I feel wonderful, able to buy clothes in a size that pleases me.  I can understand that I am not as committed as I need to be to get lower - and stay there.  Shari, your story is awesome. You look great, and I think wls was indeed your insurance policy, not as much of the solution in your case.
