    I just want to say to everyone who is on their journey, and it seems like its a very long road, when you have a lot to lose, that its so worth it, just keep going ( like Dory from Finding nemo, Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, lol) Just keep plugging away at your weight loss, dont freak out if you eat something that has sugar :noway: , just enjoy it and make the very next thing you eat a healthy choice. This is life, you will feel wonderful when you have lost the weight, and you will enjoy your new life, :drinker:

    That's terrific! You look amazing! I've lost almost 130 myself, and I know I feel great. It's so nice not to have to drag around all that extra weight.

    Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this. You are amazing!! So many of us have struggled for so long with what is, when it's boiled down to its elements, such a simple problem. You look amazing, and I'm sure you feel like a different person physically. How wonderful for you. Thank you for the inspiration!! We all need to hear that it can be done and is being done by others in the same boat as us!!

    God bless you in these exciting days ahead!

    wow....you are amazing....what an inspiration.....looking forward to my big only 5lbs more to reach my 100lb goal....thanks for sharing...
  • Congratulations! I'm so excited for you. You have given me motivation to push myself to accomplish my goals.
  • WOW, your pictures are amazing! I can't wait to read your blog.

    I'm with you, I'm way over 300 pounds and always smiling and putting on a happy face, but deep down trying to decide when I lost control. I can give you reasons all right, some very true but don't remember going from 200 pounds to where I am now. It's like it happened overnight. I cried for days when the scale said 200, I don't remember anything like that at 300 or 350 - so it's easy to discount it - saying that it happened without my realizing it - which in a way it did.

    I've been on other boards with people that have 200 pounds to lose and have even talked with some woment that have accomplished it, but don't know how. I start out with the intention that this is the last time, that I will get a handle on the problem and the weigh will start coming off but it doesn't happen .

    I can't wait to say that I'm 10 pounds, 5 pounds or less away from my goal. When that happens, I'm taking a hot air balloon ride to celebrate!

    Can't wait for your post when you say you've made it to goal!

    Congratulations on staying strong and sticking with it.

    Simply amazing. You are also correct when you say that if you weigh over 300 lbs and you say you are happy you are lying. I was unhappy for so long and while I didn't get up to 200lbs I was very close (within 20lbs) and I could have easily kept going. It's stories like YOURS that keep ME going and make me realize how unhappy I was.

    Love the work you've done!
  • Great job.......I love reading stories like this. It helps many of us to stay on track and stay motivated!
  • Wow that is amazing u look great and so healthy thanks for sharing very encouraging!

    Wow. I started where you started and I knew 145 was the upper end of the "ideal" range for my 5'4 frame. I never thought it could be possible until I saw your post here. I've already lost 101 lbs so I'm well on my way...145 still seems so far away...anything in onederland does, LOL. I also started my journey at the end of 2008 (10/20/08 to be exact) and last year, over the holidays, I stopped my healthy lifestyle completely and gained 10 lbs. I am petrified of it happening again, especially because I slipped so easily back into old habits over the the Halloween weekend. Just tonight I finally worked out again, after a week off, and THEN I saw your post. Thank you for showing me I really can go all the way!! :flowerforyou:

    Unbelievable. Congrats on all your hard work. You brought tears to my eyes just thinking of how happy you must be losing all the extra weight once and for all. I also have a long journey ahead of me. I can do this also. I can't wait until I can post my before and after photos.

    Just wondering what sort of exercise did you do at 300lbs. That is where I am at currently and I struggle to do much exercise except for walking. Would love some tips. On this thread or you can sent me a message please.
