Well sitting here thinking nearly end of august it will be new years eve soon, wow we will all be wearing lovely smaller clothing by then, thinking will have to watch the alcohol - 2 light beers the othernight and oh wow felt like i had drunken 20 full strength beers, and who needs the extra calories, i remember last new years eve was well on start of my weight loss, 1st year band aneversary on 18th sep coming up, and yes i have found my new self and the confidence - well will need some plastics but basically extactically happy, initially thought would take me years and never even reach this weight, and no no no definately never putting back on. Keep your spirits- mean dreams/visions of new self, keep on keeping on and losing.:smile2:

Thanks for the encouragement. I hope to be in your place next year.

Teri
