Thank you all for being here with me on this journey! I lost nearly 60 lbs in this Dietbet and about 70 lbs since July! Here is a recent pic vs what I think was one of my first weigh in pics!

First, congratulations to everyone on all you're hard work!!! I know each and every one of you has had victories over these last 6 months, even if you didn't make the 10% goal. Sometimes just learning what doesn't work is a victory!!! Non-scale victories are arguably more important.

I lost about 15 pounds over the 6 months, but most of that was in the beginning and then maintenance and building strength near the end. And, yes a lot of learning along the way! Here's a before and after of me and I was blown away at the difference of 15 pounds. What I love most though, is that I am stronger, have more energy, and my mindset around exercise and nutrition has completely shifted. I no longer really want the heavy things!!!

Best wishes to everyone on their journeys. It's been pleasure working on this with all of you, but I'm at a point where DB's are no longer healthy for me mentally. On to maintenance!!!

Check out those CONFIDENCE gains!
Since the photo on the left I have run a 5k, ridden 1300 miles, and dropped two pants sizes.
I think my next goal is to join a maintainer and focus on toning.

So happy to be done with this transformer!!! I've got two more going now so I still can't slack off but its feels great to have completed something after 6 months of hard work!
