    SGFlyingHI - you look amazing ! Congrats on your huge weight loss ! Laura, you are awesome, and I know you are going to be successful. 14lbs in 3 weeks must be so encouraging. I have been on for three weeks also (and this is my third time here). I have lost 5 lbs in 3 weeks and I'm so thrilled ! We all look forward to being with you through your journey and watching your amazing transformation..:drinker:

    awwww, you are going to make me :cry: , but they would be great happy tears. I love this site and hearing from people like you who are so positive, that is exactly what I need, and I will be here for many, many more months to come.

    14lbs in three weeks, WELL DONE!! :flowerforyou: I take my inspiration from people like you so thank you for sharing your story.

    I've started almost two weeks ago, I haven't weighed in but I am already starting to notice little differences, I simply feel great! Losing weight is never easy but like you, I keep reminding myself that I didn't gain it all overnight so it will take a while to lose it too. But we will get there in the end :bigsmile:

    Thanks so much:bigsmile:. You are welcome, i thought some people would get some good out of my story. yes we will get there.

    How awesome is that?! Keep up the good work! I also used to LOVE burgers (ate'em 3x a week) but now thanks to this site, I pace myself. Originally lost 10lbs and then left for one year but managed to keep those 10 off. Now, I have a burger once every couple of months and excercise extra for a few days after I eat it. I really do feel healthier!

    Just got back into it 3 weeks ago and have lost 8 lbs. Hats off to you though:smile:

    Wow! I am SOO proud of you and you remind me so much of myself. In fact your story about middle school through high school into adult hood was a bit like deja vu for me!


    And I can tell you've gotten to that point I did and I know you will reach your goal.

    You have realized that food isn't everything in life and there is too much living to do! Please let me know how I can help you reach 136!! I know you will be posting on here about reaching your goal weight and your journey and successes will inspire so many!!

    Keep going girl! You are worth feeling GREAT about yourself!!

    thank you so much, you are my inspiration. Yes I have gotten to the point where I am just so sick of looking like this and just being so tired all the time. I really appreciate all of your encouragement and praise for me, I need it. Yes, I have realized that I am worth it and there is so much living to do. :heart:
