You all don't know how good you have made me feel. It has not been easy to lose a few pounds but it has been worth it. I have had PM's almost as soon as I change it to the new thinner me. LOL. And lots of messages on several different threads. So just incase I missed responding to anyone here is a GREAT BIG THANK YOU!!!!!!!! I do believe you all have given me the motivation that I had been lacking for a couple of weeks to keep going.
Thank you and hugs,
Carrie

My daughter started last March to lose weight on Weighter Watchers. She wanted to lose 50 lbs and she has almost reached her goal. It can be done, so keep up your good work. I have not had the time to write, but I noticed your new avatar the other day and you look great!

Rhonda 11-19-2010 07:41 PM

Hadn't seen your new avatar! I love it! You look terrific CJ!! Keep going!!

Boscobd 11-19-2010 07:45 PM

Congratulations and looking good! Keep up the good work.

sueisallaboutquilts 11-19-2010 07:58 PM

Carrie, I'm also very proud of you! It's so easy to gain and hard to lose for the majority of us!!

I hope you don't get hard on yourself if you have a slip once in awhile- that's just life. As long as you get back up that's all that matters!
You look fab but your inner self is what I love the most!
HUGS

Happy Thanksgiving.

mamahippychicky 11-19-2010 11:47 PM

Carrie you look soooo beautiful! I haven't been on much lately and when I saw your avatar I didn't realize it was you to start with. Keep up the good work, and I hope you know that we are real proud of you.

Congratulations on your weight loss, you look great, it's not always easy to stick to a weight loss plan, but in the past I have found Weight Watchers to be very good. Now it's shopping for new clothes !!! enjoy. :)

Since I am new, I didn't see your other avatar. I thought you looked beautiful when I first saw you on this one. Congrats on the weight loss. I know it is very difficult to stay on a "plan". GREAT JOB!!!

:thumbup: :thumbup:

sweet 11-20-2010 04:42 AM

That is so great! Keep it up!

Zephyr 11-20-2010 06:13 AM

I certainly noticed the "new you" but didn't want to say anything on someone elses thread. Keep up the good work, you'll have twice the energy for quilting etc.

ssgramma 11-20-2010 06:19 AM

Nice accomplishment! 31 lbs down is really something to be proud of!!!

AngieS 11-20-2010 06:19 AM

Carrie,

I think it is great that you were able to lose weight! You look great! You look so happy in your picture. You have a lot to be happy about. You are doing good! Keep it up. We'll all be here cheering you on!! Go Carrie! Go Carrie! Whoo Whoo!! :thumbup:

Just let me know and I'll give you another pep rally later! :lol:

nrt211 11-20-2010 06:25 AM

Look at you! New you...and new hairdo too. Great goin', girl!

Janet L52 11-20-2010 12:53 PM

Carrie, you look wonderful!

Riversong 11-20-2010 07:18 PM

Im proud of you. Wish I could do that. Such a battle!

BRenea 11-20-2010 07:26 PM

Wow...you look great! I know what it's like to fight that battle!

Annz 11-21-2010 08:54 AM

Yes it was very noticable and you look great. If you hit a slump just go with it and you will see results again. My friend lost 78 lbs in about 10 months and she still looks great even though she put some back on. Now she only has to lose what she put back on and not the whole lot. Much easier after you lose a lot.
Keep up the good work you look great.

quilt-fanatic 11-22-2010 01:08 AM

I just thought 'Who is that skinny woman?" Then I saw it was cjomomma!

plainpat 11-22-2010 01:49 AM

Don't think I saw your other pic, but like to say a well done to anyone who is having a battle & winning....when it comes to weight.Think many,many of us have been down that road & know it's a very hard job.Good for you!!!!!!!!!!
