    So inspiring! Great job!
  • Thanks everyone for your comments :)
    What did you do to help beat the anxiety? Did you get on medication or was it a lifestyle change only? (As you can see from my screen picture, I'm not ready to show who I am yet.)

    Inquiring minds who deal with the same stuff want to know! I'm just beginning the process and really not sure how to proceed with all of it.

    By the way, you look FANTASTIC!

    My doctor gave me pill which I never took.
    The way I beat my anxiety was to place my self in situation I didn't like, at the beginning it was just going to the grocery store at night and then when slowly but surely I was able to go when it was crowded. I went back to school and forced myself in party etc.. At first it was awkward as hell! But then I got used to it and started really enjoying my life and as my weightloss started I began to feel more confident so it was like a wheel effect!

    Hopefully that will help you :)

    Awesome! I also have severe anxiety and hope the weight loss and personal strength (literal) will help my anxiety, and in turn, cure my depression.

    Thanks for this, really inspirational.
