Heres an update for those who have been following this forum, Shane weighed in last Friday, yes I know I'm late posting but I'm the boss for 3 weeks and leading is much different from following....anyway, he has dropped 126lbs in 5 months. It is astonishing to me that he is wearing jeans that I bought 5 years ago. He doesn't even count points anymore, he says he looks at food differently now, thats the only way he can describe it. If he maintains this pace, in 5 more months, he will weigh less than me, I never thought in a million years that would happen. Its nice to see him focused on something positive for a change.

BP, please give your son my congrats for losing 95 lbs! It must be a great feeling for him, and for you, to see his success! Glad you are still smoke free too! You know that smoking isn't going to fix anything, especially stress at work! You'll both have to find a nice low calorie reward to celebrate! I vote for a nice walk at the Park of Roses this weekend to see all the beautiful rose bushes! Take in nature while getting some good exercise!

Hello friends,

I wanted to give you the latest new on Shane's weight loss. He weighed in yesterday, and in 18 weeks he has dropped 95lbs. The past couple months he doesn't even measure or count his points, he just knows how much, when, and what to eat. I am so excited for him. He can now get into the Levi's I bought him 4 years ago. He has a long way to go, but this has energized him, so I know he will be plugging away.

Oh, and yes I am still smoke free. I have been experiencing some mild craving, but I know it is from tons of stress at work. I adapt well to change, but it still causes stress and sleepless nights.
