First off, YOU LOOK 30 YEARS YOUNGER! Secondly, what do you mean "only 220+"? That's incredible! Absolutely inspirational. You look amazing and beautiful!

Congratulations and well done! You can make those last few pounds no problem. :-D

Thanks, everyone! It's been a long journey but it's taken me about 3 years...give or take. I ended up in the hospital when I was 400 pounds and was in DKA (diabetic ketoacidosis) and almost died....I was on 6 prescription meds and I'm off all of them now. Heart rate went from 140 to now it's 60, BP went from 190/104 to now 117/70, fasting blood sugar went from over 200 to now 70, and I'm off all my anxiety meds, and I no longer have sleep apnea. In the past 7 months with MFP I've lost 70 lbs. I have 45 to go but I know I can do it with the support of all my friends on here.

I just quit eating fast food, started doing cardio and hot yoga, and started using portion control.

Whoa! That is an amazing job! I can only imagine how much hard work and dedication you put into this incredible transformation!

Also, I really love the bag of Micky D's and the super-size soda in the before pic! It kinda adds to the impact of the "before"... hopefully I'm translating my point of view and not sounding like an idiot. lol

HUGE CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU!!!!!!!!

thanks yeah my typical mc'd's meal was 2 big macs, 20 pc chicken nugget, and super size fries and a coke. and I'd do this 2x a day. that's why I lost so much weight, I quit eating like that and started eating healthy. I still to this day cannot believe I ate so much back then.
