Freckles, this is a fabulous story of success!! So very infomative and motivating. I appreciate your mention of mistakes in the past for us who are still learning. Your pictures speak a thousand words. Can't wait to see the final after photo. Congratulations! You are a true inspiration and already give back in many ways to us new comers.

You look GREAT. We have similar stats (except you're taller, darnit) so it's inspirational to see your before-n-after shots. I am too chicken to post mine - yet. Someday.
Thanks for posting your meals and thoughts/struggles. We all learn by watching you!

Wonderful story, Freckles. Thanks for taking the time to write it out. So many people need to read your conclusions- because really, if you believe in the science behind all this, it couldn't be any other way, but sometimes we need to hear it in another, more personal way.
Hats off to you.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! You are such an inspiration and the fact that you didnt act like this was so easy makes me feel more inspired that you are a real person who told the true story!
I am pretty much doing most of what you did but I need to give up my diet coke. Also, I only weigh myself once per week-it stresses me out to do it everyday.
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!! Cant wait to see the pics!
