Hi my friends,

Today is the big day. I am down 100 pounds.!!!!! :eek:

Got there in 8 months 3 weeks and 5 days! Now I still have at least 54 pounds to go, but that number sounds far less intimidating! I am so overwhelmed that I don't know what to say. My life is dramatically different now. I am no longer afraid of chairs, booths etc.. I can workout for 45 minutes doing cardio without feeling like I'm having a heart attack. My skin is better, no more double chin, no more swelling and I am no longer the biggest person in a restaurant or at a social event. For those just starting the band is the best investment I ever made for myself. Yes, its hard work and you need to do a lot of headwork and make lots of changes, but it is worth it if you stick to the program.

I love my band!!!

Hi Guys,

I disappear for a few minutes and get oodles of new well wishers. Thanks for all of the support and friendship I have here. All of you are great and I look forward to coming here and checking all of your warm wishes and getting advice. This is a great site and we should try to increase the activity a little here, since it has been a little slow lately.
