Less than 20 lbs to go now, I'm eager to have the weight loss (obsession) part of my life over. This was the best thing I ever could have done for myself, I would do it again in a heartbeat. On a large scale I didn't have a ton to loose, which is why I kept it to myself and have still never told most of my friends and family. I know they wouldn't understand, they don't get my struggles with weight. And seem to think the 70lbs over weight is just part of getting older. That wasn't something I was able to except and I couldn't bring myself to go on one more diet. In the end this was the best thing for me and I couldn't be happier. 60lbs down 10 to go
