I'm almost there! I started out at 283 and I made it to 189.2. It took a while to get the scale to come down from the 190s but it eventually did and boy did it feel great! I can't believe I'm almost to 100 pounds lost. I'm in shock. I have such a mix of emotions - celebration and joy and old insecurities popping up with a vengeance. I want that 183 soooooo badly I can taste it.

    Thank you! I lost most of the weight really fast. I think it was like 10 months. Because I went on an elimination diet as I was discovering food allergies. I had to heal my gut. My advice is if you are super serious about losing you gotta cut out bread and processed foods. Go whole foods and all natural. The cravings are bad for about 3 weeks and then they go away. The weight just falls off and mine stayed off for good. You can lose weight and eat bread. But it's a much slower process.

    You can go ahead and taste it, just make sure to track it! Just kidding... CONGRATULATIONS that was a lot of hard work. You are almost there!
