Congrats, what an excellent Christmas present! Have you been back to the doctors since losing the weight? I'd love to see his reaction when you ask how he'd classify you now. I think foxy is very appropriate!

You look beautiful I want to look that good when I am 54!!! You are an inspiration to me - I also have a small frame was always petite and had a nice figure until.....an illness put me on steroids(on and off again for years) and I have also had a complete hysterectomy! The weight isn't pouring off me like you but I am committed to this woe and hope to reach my goal by June if not sooner ( I started 12/5/07) if you have any tips please share.

I absolutely LOVE your story!! You look like a young woman in your twentys in your after shot! And as far as the retired hubby goes...I'd be scared too! That could really "cramp my style"! I'm sure there will be a period of adjustment for both of you. If it gets to be too much, head to this forum for a bit of a respite!

Thank you for your story! I'm so thrilled to read stories of women who are over 45 and succeed losing the amount of weight (or more) that I want to lose!

Your new picture is wonderful... and that after Christmas shopping spree must have been marvelous!
