I have battled the bulge for years. I am an optimist though and never give up. The most impressive part is the fact that you have maintained your weight loss and that is no easy feat.

It is very slow for me as I take insulin and that hinders the weight loss. I keep plugging away though. I know it would go faster if I could make myself do lots of exercise.<BR/>I love your granny squares.

That kind of weight loss is life changing and something that makes you a tremendous impact on your life-Your self confidence and self-esteem probably were sky high after you accomplished your goal. I have lost and gained 20-25 pounds so many times. You are an inspiration. Its 6am, i guess its time for a walk..

I have 4 boys so these "girly" blogs mean a lot to me. :><BR/><BR/>Well, congrats on your weight loss! "Big girl panties"- that was funny! I'm really tall so I can "hide" the weight fairly well but this last Spring that fat suddenly came out of hiding and I realized I had to do something. Wow! I never imaginined it would be so hard to loose but now I seem to be on a roll- roll back that is. Whew! I only have a few more pounds or inches to loose now but I really admire those who manage to loose a 100 pounds or more!<BR/><BR/>Have a great day!<BR/><BR/>~ Hearts~Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07840763198355567689noreply@blogger.com
