Before and After
Sorry for the lengthy spell between posts! I have several fun things to post about soon, so keep an eye out here.
Many of you know that I have been using Weight Watchers for the past year. Through this great program, I have lost 70 pounds. Everything that the commercials say about Weight Watchers is true: it's not a diet, there are no forbidden foods, you can eat what you want, etc. It's all about balancing portion size, food choices and exercise. I am now what's called a "Lifetime" member, meaning that I've reached my goal weight and maintained for 6 weeks. As long as I stay near my goal weight, I can continue to attend meetings for free. And I just love my weekly meeting. Sheba has been a huge help during this process, as our daily walks are basically my only source of exercise. Here are my before, during and after pictures:

Thank you for sharing your photos and story Laura! I just started WW yesterday, and you are truly an inspiration!
Wow, don't you look great!
Hi Laura!
I was actually going through my bookmarked pages and came across your blog again. You look absolutely amazing! I am taking my first ChE class with Professor Liao this quarter, and he is (surprisingly for me) a great lecturer. Hope everything is going well for you...

Laura,
I checked out your blog after you replied to a thread I posted on the WW board. I'm crobinson23340 and I just started WW and was a bit overwhelmed it all. Thank you for your advice and for directing me to your blog. It is really inspirational to see your transformation in the different stages. I think I'm going to do the same thing. Imitation is the greatest form of flattery! Anyway, thank you for your support. I'll probably be returning to your page through my journey for motivation. If you have any other support or advice or ideas for me, my email is crobinson23340@yahoo.com. Thanks again!

Hi..i'm Honduraschica from Weight Watchers boards, well i think the biggest thing i did was stick to it..i had some mager ups and downs around 165-170.....and around 160-158...it's been hard at times but i've kept going...making sure to exercise and track and sometimes i even done core, which i love..also now i check my heartrate to make sure i'm getting the best out of my exercise..also i am 21:):) so i know that that probably has a big advantage...but you can do it if that's your goal..honestly i think you look great and Congrats...
