    You're amazing. You're writing is a great insight - thank you for your honesty. I haven't had as much to lose as you but I'm a family doctor and reading about your experiences will really help me to help people who perhaps feel trapped in a cycle of low mood and comfort eating.

    I never comment or post on the things I read online. However this is....

    Although I am speechless at this poetic post. I just want to commend you on not just your weight loss, your journey but also on your eloquent way with words. Best of luck for your future.

    Thank you so much for sharing your story. The way you wrote that piece, I feel like I could tell how you were feeling.. you really gave your story emotion & reminded me of how I've felt before when I'm standing in a dressing room. Unlike you, there's been so many times where I've been excited to go clothes shopping. I find some items in the store, hold them up, & think surely this will fit me. Go into the dressing room, try on the clothes, look in the mirror & I look like a stuffed sausage. Jerk off the clothes & leave so frustrated with myself for allowing my weight to get so out of control. I have 86 pounds that I'd like to lose.. a number that seems so high & overwhelms me with fear, but stories like yours remind me that it's possible.

    Congrats on your super hard work, you look incredible!!
