    Thank you so much for sharing your story. It has really helped me today. I have added a line that you cannot and that is I am too old to lose weight and exercise. I have a soon to be three year old granddaughter that I need to be able to keep up with so your success is now my inspiration. I have lost a little but I get frustrated when other health problems get in the way but I now know it is possible. Thanks again for sharing.

    How wonderful!!! Many congrats and thank you for posting the story of your journey. I am just beginning mine and have about 150 pounds to lose. I have been looking at that number and throwing in the towel on an almost daily basis. Thank you for suggesting setting up goals as I go along, ones that can actually be met. I really related to your first couple of sentences. You're an inspiration to me. I will pray for your continued success.

    Kudos to you for losing the weight! Some may expect a quick solution for 100+ lb weight loss, but it takes time and dedication, and you have both. Congrats.

    Thank you all so much for all of the kind comments. I am so glad that people were able to relate to my post and received some motivation.

    I did lose quite a bit of weight in a relatively short time but that is b/c my lifestyle allowed me to dedicate so much time to the gym and that is where my focus has been for the last year. I totally understand that not everyone is able to do that, but it doesn't matter...remember it's not a race and there is no time limit on how much and how quickly you need to lose the weight. Do what you can and be happy with what you do.

    To those who feel that they want to throw in the towel at a plateau or even before they start just b/c the amount you have to lose is daunting....DON'T. You CAN do it! Surround yourself with supportive people and use them.

    I am happy to answer any questions you have so please feel free to message me.

    wow, you are inspiring! I lose my motivation easily although at least now I am convinced that I don't want to be getting fatter as I get older. I love the photo of your little guy fitting with you in your old jeans!!:)
