That's me, far right, May 2002. I had lost somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 lbs by this point.

May 2002. What amazed me is how fast the weight came off around my neck and face. (And didn't come off my belly all that fast, not at first.)

Well, OK, there's still some there.

The woman in the middle, Cathy, is the reason I joined WW in the first place. She lost 50 lbs on the program, and is still slim today.

April 2003; I'm on the right. Although here I was only 10 lbs heavier than my current weight (about 141 here), I had a significant "spare tire." I managed to get rid of it. I intensified my cardio, and also upped my weight training seriously. My body reshaped itself over about a year. and I lost additional fat (and gained additional muscle).

Deb:

Saw your post on points "I ate every stinkin' point coming to me," and laughed out loud.  I, too, ate every stinkin' available point and made lifetime 3 weeks ago.  I can only hope to be as successful.  I love the photos of you exercising.  I've learned to love exercise, too!

Deb....Great photos. Thanks for being part of the 50's message board.  I actually have a whole folder of your quotes, posts, etc., which I refer back to constantly since joining online over 4 years ago.  You really are an inspiration to a lot of people.
Hope you stick around & keep us going.

I am also just at that 50 year (1/2 way) mark and needing to get back the body I lost (or stretched ALL out of shape!) along the way. The second half of my life is shaping up to be full of love and fun. I plan on being in  better physical shape to enjoy it! You are a real inspiration! Your blog tells me I can do it too!On my way out for a walk now! Thanks!
