    I'm glad you shared this! You look amazing! My heaviest was also 170. I still have 25lbs to go before I reach my goal weight, and sometimes I need a reminder that good things take time.You are fantastic!

    "I don't have to eat rabbit food or do hours and hours of an exercise I hate to make progress. Eat food you enjoy. Do exercise you enjoy. The best plan is the one with which you can stick long term. "

    Great advice! Congrats on your success...

    This is awesome and the fact that you are maintaining with relative ease is really making me feel hopeful and good about losing weight slowly. I actually started a resistance training class several months before bothering to restrict calories, and continuing with that training as i diet. I'm excited about what I will uncover, and will take your word for it that it's harder to build muscle than keep it. I'm gonna try to keep mine! thanks for the inspiration!
