    You do look incredible.

    I've always felt that the only people who truly understand what it's like to try and shift really significant amounts of weight is those who have done it themselves. There's a huge difference between losing 50lb, and 100lb or more. It takes a particular kind of determination and stamina, and it requires that you change your whole view of yourself and your body to be able to do it.

    It's great to see someone do this as successfully as you have. Very well done!

    I just clocked in at 655 days on MFP and it still feels amazing to be 110 pounds lighter, fit and wearing a size 8 / 10 down from a tight size 24. Never give up and keep working toward your goals. You'll get there.

    WOW that is stunning in one year and you look fantastic. This post should be pinned at the top for all newbies like me

    I have lost 6 lbs in 3 weeks and have another 50lbs to go. I know it is not 100+ but it still a massive amount for someone as short as me.

    Your transformation is amazing. Thanks for cheering us on :smile: I started in the beginning of this year, and 10 months later I have lost 62 pounds. I am well on my way to reaching my goal. We can do this! I'm not even at my final goal yet and I already feel so much better. I love it!
