		<description>Wow! You look so wonderful! That is some good advice, I think positive thinking is crucial to losing weight and keeping it off. Congrats on your accomplishment! You must be so proud of yourself. :)

		<description>First, I just wanted to tell you that I think you could have a career in TV!  You looked great, but you sounded even better. Congrats!

Regarding this specific post, you have hit the nail on the head for me. My friends have been asking me how my weight loss has been going, and I&#039;ve been telling them that I&#039;m maintaining right now, because that is the truth.  I&#039;d like to get moving down the scale again, but I&#039;m also satisfied with NOT backsliding.  For me, based on my history, it&#039;s a huge accomplishment.  You made all the points I&#039;ve been telling myself; I just need to make sure that I don&#039;t lose sight of those points and give myself excuses to backslide.

		<description>Just wanted to say that you were great on Dr. Oz - I was able to catch it after all!  I taped it and watched it with my husband and got pretty emotional at a couple of points.  It was pretty surreal to have a couple of the guests voice what we have all been through.  I think it was especially poignant for me because I just passed that particular milestone a few days ago.  Anyhow, it was a well put together show, and you looked beautiful and were very well spoken.  Great job, Diane!

		<description>By the way, I have maintained my weight for about a month now.  I am happy maintaining my weight because I am not gaining.  I still hope to loss about 20 pounds but I can wait.  I have come so far and the last 20 will be the hardest.  The neat thing about lossing weight this time is that it was the first time that I did not go on a diet.  I just changed my eating habits a little at  a time until I was eating totally different than before.</description>

		<description>My sister was kind enough to tell me I should read  your  blog today as I am going through temporary maintenance. I am holding my weight after lossing around 90 pounds.  I decided to let myself maintain my weight loss for a while possibly until my birthday in April.  Allowing myself to maintain my weight loss, gave me the freedom not to be frustrated with not losing weight.  Am I very proud of myself, I have loss the weight on my own.  I continue to work out 5 times a week and to eat healthy.</description>

		<description>Diane,  I am so excited for you. You are such an inspiration to so many. I can&#039;t believe we will both be on the Dr. OZ show.  Please make sure you let me know when it will air so I can watch.  Dr. OZ Rocks!! He is so kind and warm.

Maintenance is so hard. It&#039;s as hard as losing the weight. 

Hug&#039;s coming your way!!

		<description>I&#039;m so sad! You were pre-empted in Memphis for the Olympics--and it was hockey, for goodness&#039; sake! Fingers crossed that they re-run it this summer.
