Hi everyone!

I'm now just 2 days shy of my 44th b-day and have managed to lose 90 lbs in 5 months.  How crazy is that??  Thanks to all of the valuable information/support gained here and on MFP, I am succeeding beyond my wildest dream. 

You read all of the posts about people hitting the Century Club by 6 months.  I honestly did not think this would be possible for me, but, yet, here am I, just 9 lbs away from 100 lbs gone.  WOW!

I've learned a lot about myself over these last several months.  I'll tell you, it is a journey.  There may be some turbulence along the way, but I know that it's going to be a smooth flight to my heart & soul's destination. 

If you're on the fence, hop onto this side.  For me, the grass was/is greener.  Do your research, ask questions, don't sweat the small stuff and make sure your head is screwed on straight with eyes wide open.  You, too, can succeed!!!

Thanks Katy.  It's a real hoot getting smaller...and smaller....and smaller.   You're doing a bang up job yourself!
