Just wanted to say your transformation has completely inspired/encouraged me. You are pretty close to where I grew up (vernon, bc) so it was interesting to read someone so close to home.

(i live in the gta now ((boo)) )

Thanks for letting us read your story

Thanks Janie! I have not been on here as much as usual as summer is a bit crazy around here, we have been dirtbike racing and or camping every weekend and have only been working or home for 3 days a week.....

All is going well this end, I suck at getting to the gym as I am never home, I will go back but probably not till october once my schedule changes a bit. I am an official student, I decided to sign up for the 2 year advanced practice/contact lens course so I start that in a couple of weeks, how scary!!!

Weight wise I am floating between 170-172lb but am fitter with all the riding I am doing (dirtbikes, horses and mountain biking) so I am sure some of it is muscle?! My boobs are still awful, I have the tits of a 90 year old!!!! Way smaller though, I can now fit about a 34D from a 46G!!! Yep imagine those babies!! LOL

Quick update on me!! I am sat at 169lbs and holding....my Dr has referred me to a plastic surgeon and I have a consult April 8 2009, which seems a long way away but I would still like to hit the 160lb mark and then I think once I have a body lift and boobs fixed that will remove ~10lbs also. This last 9lb is a real bugger!!!!

I am doing really well in my course, 100% on all post assessment tests and I am enjoying it although it is taking a lot of my already low free time!

Still no issues with food, I can honestly eat anything and stop the minute I feel I am getting full. Some days I can eat more than others. The one thing I really need to do is up my water intake, that sucks lately! All in all life is good!!

Hey Samm,

You are looking great!!!!! A job well done. I am eager to follow your progress now with the plastic surgery.

Would still love to get together again. We need a thin picture now with everyone.

Hey my girls. Sounds like both Tawna and Samm are doing great. I have been a hermit lately, but hey, I am here today. Lots going on in my life, so the board isn't a daily thing anymore. Love to you all.
