  • HEY!
    Yeah, I have lost 75 pounds in a year and a half! It toke a while, but I got there!
    I went from 200 pounds, down to 125!
    It's a lot of hard work, and there are times you just want to scream, but the end result is great!
    There are times I will go upstairs with a box that's like, 20 pounds,and I wonder how I managed to do it before! I am a lot healthier, I 'm happier, I am way more confident, it's amazing !

    I have lost 67 lbs. From my all time high of 280 I am 117 lbs leaner, older and wiser. LOL
    I never set a date. My motto is one day, one meal and one step at a time. I have fallen many times and gotten back up many times and can't say it was smooth sailing all the way but when I got cancer 8 years ago they wanted me to gain weight. I did gain back up to 213 drinking liquid meals with vanilla ice cream in the chocolate ones. Mainly because they tasted gross to me. LOL As soon as my radiation was finished and I could swallow again I got back on track beginning with baby food until I could eat regular food and now weigh 163 and have varied from 161 to 172 for the past 8 years now. The key is never give up on yourself. Forgive yourself. Love yourself which leads to doing good things for you like you do for others. You deserve it! Every journey begins with one step so just keep on taking that one step and soon you will reach the finish line.
    On to victory!

    I have lost almost 70 lb in 11 months and will reach the 1 yr point on March 25. However I started at 262 lb. So if you don't have as much to lose, you might not lose as quickly.
