Definitely some thought provoking ideas! I think it is probably best that we lose at a slow rate so that our hearts and minds have a chance to cope with these changes.

Somedays I feel terrific and I am not too concerned about my weight. Other days I feel like a whale that should not be allowed outdoors. I have realized that my weight becomes a focrum for all of my insecurities and issues. Sometimes I really respect my body for all I have put it through and it just keeps fighting.

Shark, you have done one hell of a job! I look forward to reading your posts whenever I see them. Your comments and views have been very helpful to me and you are very supportive! Yeah, let's just keep on going!

Sherry, you always have the most thoughtful and interesting ideas. I know you have turtled a lot but you really have been through a lot. Your tenacity is a wonderful thing to see!
