Guest guest Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Hi Karyn, It's weird how we all seem to be be struck with sudden blindness when looking at our own progress photos. Yet it's so easy to notice the changes in others. It definitely helps to have a supportive group and some objective input. Welcome back!

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Hi , Thanks for the welcome back :)I am looking forward to being a part of this group again, everyone has been so supportive. Earlier I was reading your blog on the Vibram shoes, it was funny. I can see how they would actually be comfortable, though, just take some getting used to. I might try a pair for this summer, it looks like the individual toe separation might be healthy for the feet.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Dieann, Nooooo say it isn't so! I just saw your updated pics yesterday, I can't believe its gone. It was a really good source of inspiration for me, I looked at so many pics I was able to actually guess weight on most of the befores with uncanny accuracy lol. Well, time for a new hobby, like maybe getting some of those weird Vibram 'barefoot' shoes and scaring random people Thanks for the welcome back!
