Fantastic dedication.

You don't look like you're sick, BUT, you now need to get new glasses because the old ones are too wide.

Congrats on your success!

Ok Stuart.. we gotta talk. Please PM me some details about the meeting location. The online version of WWs ain't working for me. I need the shame factor of public weigh ins to help me stay on course . I need to lose 90-ish pounds and I've only dropped 10 all summer.

You are quite the inspiration. Fantastic determination. Way to go!

LOL Stuart, I mis read these were taken before. I had only scrolled down far enough to see the top two pictures. I was thinking it didn't look 83 lbs difference. Then I scrolled down and found the third pic. DUH! You look like you feel 1000% better.

Great job. I need to do the same thing.

Stuart,

Wow! When you visited me a few weeks ago I had no clue as to the "old" you. What an accomplishment! Weight loss may be a mental exercise but it's one that most folks (including me) can't conquer. Great job.... and keep it up.

Barbara, you are quite a diplomat. You know the right things to say, even though they probably aren't true. Even so, I will put you at the top of the list to give a big hug at the next picnic.
