well vicky, i am no veteran, but our goal weights are the same... I however had 51.8kg to drop and have already had 4 children... I try to believe my own words.."its all in the packaging".. They are my pearls of wisdom for everyone else... ha ha ha .. But i too share your worry and concern over the skin.. I have been reminded by some lovely post cohens people, that the skin continues to tone after the program, the human growth hormone continues to work after refeed..... Just as Cate has informed you.. Obviously being younger and no children will help your body adjust much better..
I did stress over what i may look like, but i have decided that is something i can work on once i have completed my goal, no point scaring myself out of it before i have reached it...
i know you may well think, at least you have a husband but I have known my husband intimately since i was 15... i am now 30.. I am not exactly the catch he bargained on... ha ha ha ha... Its is still hard for us married couples too... love may be blind, unfortunately my reflection is crystal clear...

Oh Vicky, dont settle for a comfy, easy weight, honest it wont be as satisfying as reaching your ultimate goal... Push yourself... I know you can do it... we can do it.. I cant wait to be living it up on the scales in the 70's.. Does that even make sense.. ha ha ha...

Dont settle for second best... You are worth first place...

Take care have a great Valentines Day..

TTFN

Hey Vicky,

I couldn't resist dropping in to congratulate you on your successful Cohen journey. I reckon it must have been more difficult for you than myself (granting you had more to lose). I have to say that I'm totally inspired by you and this makes me even want to ensure that I STICK to the plan like anything because I know tons of people have done it...only excuses fail it. So, I'll not allow myself to have any excuse. I wonder if I can be in the ranks of those who don't ever deviate at all while on the programme. Too early for me to say now, cos I'm only into my 6th day. You too can read about it on "My Personal Journey".

Cheerios and waiting to read more from you and your sister
