Hi Guys,

Well it seems I have found my 'sweet spot'. I have been maintaining for awhile now between 140 - 145 lbs... which puts my BMI 19.3 - 19.9.

Here are some pics at my current weight:

Man I my Sleeve!!

Big Hugs, and all the best to you on your journey, no matter where you are, just staring, right in the thick of it, or maintaining like I am..., we all have so much to be thankful for...

No, I did not have plastic surgery, I thought long and hard about getting:
- lypo on my tummy and thighs
- and some new small perky boobs

But, I figured it was not worth the pain or the money, and at 45 years old, and happily married, I don't need a perfect body...

Still would love the boobs though, but I naively did not know they had to be replaced every 10 years!! No thanks...

Thanks so much!

Hi Jenny,

I actually do have some loose skin, I walked right from the beginning, I walk 4 miles a day rain or shine... sadly that is it... those weights in the pic are all for show!

Here are some pics with my loose skin, stubborn thighs and tummy AND my slow healing scars:

Thanks so much honey! Big hugs,
