I really hate it when nobody replies to posts. Someone said you can see something beautiful in everyone and you’re no exception.Think positive and positive things happen.4

My weightloss has been extremely slow as well. In order to stay motivated I had to find my confidence and beauty no matter what size. I did this by looking at all women and admiring their individual beauty. Thin, thick, short, older...once I realized all these women were gorgeous not perfect...I found love for myself as well.
Good luck on your journey gorgeous girl!11 -

A person can be confident at 200 lbs, the weight really isn't the issue. I believe we assume that our body is the cause of our negative self-talk, so changing our body will automatically change that behavior. But negative self-talk is a well-practiced mental habit, and if you don't work on that you may never have the confidence you so desire. Good luck to you!
This is so true!!

Your inner beauty and outer beauty are both easily seen in your statement and pic.
Beauty comes in all shapes, sizes and colors; there is no standard for beauty, only opinions.
Beauty is only in the eye of the beholder.
The rarest of all is a beautiful personality, which you seem to be gifted with along with your beautiful looks.
Do not struggle with confidence, if there is anyone who does not see all of your beauty, it is their loss, not yours.2 -

Beautiful pic of a beautiful young lady
Apparently “Plus” just means a little more in all the right places2 -
Love your positive message 😊5 -
Way to go, OP, you look awesome.
Confidence is important at every size. I think the best thing about being a confident woman at every size is that you don't base it on "being thin" or chasing a specific ideal.

You are another beautiful example of exactly what I meant earlier @rickiimarieee; “Plus” in all the right places.
Who decided “Plus” was an accurate term to describe a woman’s body?
“Plus” seems to be a criticism that there is something more added on that should not be there.
It is possible for a woman to be soft and curvy and be just as beautiful and sexy as her thinner “minus size” counterpart.
As long as a woman is healthy, active, fit and happy; her size should not be judged and if she is not happy with her size she deserves support and encouragement, not judgement.
Sorry for the rant

Thank you so much and I totally agree. Love your body and just be healthy! My curves will never go away! My hips widened after two babies and my bones will never move back to how they use to be so I’ve accepted it!3 -

You are a very beautiful woman @fairylover0092, love your eyes and that look, all your face and bod pics show a very curvy lady that has a very curvy figure and sexy proportions. I will keep saying it on here, once again you show that some women are not meant to be a size 4. Be proud and confident of how you look, just be as healthy and active as you can be.
Love all the pics, hope you and all the other ladies on here post more often to keep showing everyone that “Plus” size is equally attractive to “Minus”

WOW, not only do you look amazing, that is an amazing accomplishment to loose that much weight
Congratulations!
That took dedication and determination few people have, you are definitely a winner!
No doubt that 637 pounds was unhealthy in many ways, but I am sure you were just as beautiful a lady then as you are now.
You are an inspiration that anyone can be more healthy and fit and loose weight and reshape your body if you choose to, but it takes effort
You really are a very beautiful woman with a very shapely figure and I too would not have thought you were even close to 200 pounds.
I hope you keep sharing and inspiring others while you loose your next 65 pounds to achieve your goal and prove being healthy, happy and fit in not just about your size2 -
