Well, I decided to do a recent before/after pic here; my friends have fussed at me long enough. I am still only with just right at 140 pounds loss and have been living on a plateau for what seems like forever (3 months) with me gaining and losing the same 5 pounds forever now, but my friend encouraged me saying pull out pictures and see how far you have come, and yes, I am thankful for that but I don't like getting "stuck" and not losing!! I am very discouraged and needed to see me as I was then and now. Hopefully I can get to losing again soon, wish me luck. Thanks for looking.

Way to go Brenda!

Dawg, you look so good!!!!!!!!!!

Chin up and no more feeling blue, okay? You look FAB!!!! You blow me away. Do you feel as good as you look? OMGosh!!! Well done!

I think your name should now be Ethel! Not big ethel - you've lost the right for that title! You look marvolous!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations on your journey, stop a take a breathe you deserve to have a moment of glory for yourself. The platuea will end on it's own sweet time.

Be happy and healthy!

Love, Debby

You are beautiful! What a difference! You have done an amazing job with your band. I sometimes think our body has to rest to keep up with all we lost. It has been very slow for me the last few months, but I can see a big difference in the inches lost even though the scale goes very slow. Have you checked to see if your measurements have changed during this time? Good luck!

Thanks for the pics - you look AMAZING!! You're an inspiration to all of us. Good luck jumping off that plateau!
