And now for a current picture! :)
It was a little tricky getting Keith to take a good picture of me, this was as close as we could get! I just want to thank EVERYONE for being so supportive. I could not have been as successful without your help and encouragment. I know that sounds cheesy, but it's true. I had people calculating my points before having us over for dinner. People calling on Monday's to check in to see how I'd done through the week. (I hated the few times I had to say I'd gained!) People made sure wherever we were eating, it had something that would be easy for me to figure my points. No one ever invited us to a buffet. Thank you very much. And others told me I inspired them to loose weight too. This meant a lot to me. So even though I know it sounds chessy, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I've been asked if I'm going to lose even more weight, and so far I'm pretty happy with where I'm at. But, I think I will lose a few more pounds just so I can easily stay under my goal weight so that I don't have to start paying for weight watchers again! I've gone from a size 18 to a size 8. You have no idea how wonderful I feel. I'm so happy to have made this lifestyle change, and to not have to sneek off with peoples cameras to delete photo's of myself. I can stand tall again. :)

Great Job Jessy!
What an accomplishment. My hat is off to you. I lost my weight while breastfeeding so I got more points per day than normal and I'm nervous about gaining when I stop. BUT you've done it the hard way and I am seriously proud of you.
I am one of those you count myself blessed to have been inspired by you.
Thank you and enjoy the new you!!

Congratulations Jessy! You are an amazing self-determined women. Not many people can accomplish what you have accomplished and that isn't just paying you lip service. You are in control of your life (with God's guiding) and your accomplishment and example impacts all who love you.
That includes me.

Way to go, Jessica! I'm so proud of you! You look fantastic.
I've been doing WW as well to lose the baby weight, and it's worked the best for me out of anything I've ever tried. I think it's my competitive nature that enjoys counting the points and challenging myself. ;)
Merry Christmas!
