    Would love to know how many people have walked straight past you who haven't seen you in a while?? LOL. Well done seems lame but you rock!!

    Funny you say this, I had an old roommate introduce himself to me at a bar and a friend from college I hung out with frequently not know who I was. It's surreal. It's happened so many times!

    Wow! Wow! Wow! Congratulations!!!
    I am glad to read your story today bc i felt a little down, yesterday I share my ultimate goals with a love one and got laughed at, I was told my goal was impossible. But reading your story gives me hope that I can get there too.
    May I ask how are u dealing with lose skin if any?

    Never let anyone tell you what you can or can't do. You can do anything that you truly want bad enough. I have some on my upper arms and stomach that I will likely deal with surgically but I might want to have a kid first so I'm not in a rush.

    Great job! I'm not too far off from you. 301 to 156 in 26 months, 6 lbs to goal! It's a long journey and worth every minute!

    What kinds of exercise did you do during your journey? Intensity? Time?

    What about now during maintenance?
