Sharon - you have always been one of my most inspiring weight-loss icons and I never fail to be wowed by your pics. Of course - the raw material was good to start with (you were DDG before you even started the diet) but you're simply stunning now; beautiful both inside and out.

Hugs - and thankyou for being such an inspiration.

Isobel, Deb and Debbie - I'm seriously blushing now , but dead chuffed at the same time (has to be seen to be believed *lol*).

Kittykate - your post has truly made my day! I said to Mini that even if ONE person was inspired or encouraged to start or persevere with their diet by seeing my photos then I'd be a very happy bunny indeed. Thank you! xxx

Oh it is wonderful to see such inspirational photos and you look STUNNING. My own counsellor is in the same league (JEM) and between the two of you I reckon you are shining examples of determination and drive. The really inspirational part is you have both maintained your weight loss over a long period and PROVED that we can all share that success if we stay determined. At the end of the day it is down to each and every one of us to control what passes between our lips; and take responsibility for our actions.
When I met Jem for the first time I really wondered if she had ever been on a diet and how did she become involved with CD. Would she be supportive beyond supplying me with the packs. What a misguided thought that was!!!!!
(SS) sole source to (SS) stunning + slim - they seem to say the same message.

Thank you Bea

I assure you that I'm not in the least either toned OR fit (as those who saw me huffing and puffing up the cliff path and 160-odd steps at the Giants Causeway yesterday will testify ). I'm almost ashamed to admit I did no exercise whatsoever when I was losing the weight, but have joined a gym recently and aim to go twice a week now - mostly to tone up.

OK now I'm SERIOUSLY blushing! You know I don't see that (and even if I did, I'd probably wonder what/who else they were looking at as it couldn't possibly be me! ) .

Thanks for being the best roomie I could have wished for. Let's do it again soon eh? xx
