EvaMarie,
I've been meaning to tell you that you inspired me. I was reminded when I read the bit about losing weight in the letter to your parents. When you posted your before and current pictures a while ago, it was the kick in the butt I needed to finally do something about my weight. I was 6'0" and about 200 lbs 6 weeks ago which isn't too bad really but I have this very characteristic spare tire and tiny beer gut common to men ...certainly not feminine. I was waiting patiently for breasts to develop but constantly annoyed by the unbecoming mid section right below the budding breasts. Nothing says "moobs" more than a tummy supporting them, IMHO. When I saw your pictures and read about the weight you'd already lost, the puck hit the floor and it was game time! The man gut had to go! I read the Wheat Belly book about 5 weeks ago and put it into practice right away. So far, I've lost about 15 pounds and 1-2 inches around my waist. I'm gong to keep going until the spare tire and belly bubble are both gone which I expect will happen between 160-170. So I'm with ya on the weight loss initiative. Thanks for the kick in the butt!
