    Hi Ready4...., First off, congratulations. You look great! I hope you feel as good as you look. Your post brings me to something I have been contemplating since my own journey started 9 weeks ago.

    You look great!!! You can loose more by cutting out anything white in your diet. Stick to meats and lots of green veggies for about 10 days to reboot your metabolism. Keep up the great work :-). You

Hi Ready4....,

First off, congratulations. You look great! I hope you feel as good as you look. Your post brings me to something I have been contemplating since my own journey started 9 weeks ago. I think that so many of us detached from our bodies a long time ago, so as we are loosing weight so rapidly and starting a new relationship with our bodies, it is difficult to recognize our own accomplishments. I read daily on this forum people posting about how they have lost tons of weight, but who can't see it. It is really an interesting thing. I struggle with it too. I have lost 49 lbs, but I struggle to see it. I sometimes find myself focusing on the other 93 lbs I want to loose. I have to check myself mentally. I remind myself that I hadn't lost this much weight in 15 years and to be patient and to celebrate my accomplishments. I would offer you the same....CELEBRATE your victory! Go buy a cute new dress and go dancing or do something to show off your great new body! No matter how far you feel you need to go, don't forget how far you have come! CONGRATS.
