115 lbs lost so far, 200 to go

Posts: 53
I didn't think I would ever be able to lose weight successfully. I was 482 at my highest, and had some issues of mobility as a result of a very serious car accident in 2002. I honestly was about to give up on myself. I had a health scare about a year ago that finally prompted me to bite the bullet and get started.
I still have a long way to go, but now I have tons of energy, and can do many things that I wasn't able to do before. I can walk around and stand on my feet for hours, sit in any chair I want, and sit in restaurant booths. For very overweight people, these are definitely issues. I just wanted to share my progress so far with others and say YOU CAN DO IT. I believe in you :-)

Thanks all! I fixed the issue with the photos (thanks kao!). I'm really tall (5'10"), so the weight has farther to spread out. LOL. I'm about a 22/24 now.0

I agree that you definitely carry the weight well. You look at least a hundred pounds lighter in your "after" picture than you are! I am so proud of you! I can relate to feeling like you just want to give up on yourself. It takes a lot of determination and patience to achieve what you have and you should be proud too! Thanks for sharing your story. Sending wishes for continued success to you!0
