    Congratualtions on your achievements to date - that is so good that you did it without surgery etc - and obvioulsy not able to exercise a lot.

    I was going to suggest you go to a thrift shop and get yourself a few things that fit but I see you don't like wearing other people's clothes. Maybe look at it as recycling - you can take them home and wash them etc - I donated bags and bags of clothes to the charity shops, I now buy back from them, and have found some really nice things.

    Looking forward to seeing a post that you have hit ONEderland :flowerforyou:

    You look great and about twenty years younger. Keep up the awesome job you are doing and best of luck on your journey. Don't get both of your new knees the same time, I did that and what a terrible, painful mess. It took me six months to walk again. The doctor said one knee teaches the other knee how to act, so you need to have one real knee and the other will learn from it. I know it sounds crazy, but I believe him now. Give yourself time for your changes and your knees. Your story was very motivational. Good job

    Congratulations on the weight loss! You look great! I think if you went out and bought some clothes that fit your body right now you'd feel even better. Especially when you KNOW you're in a smaller size. It may be just the right motivation to take off the next 30 in order to get your surgery. And, clothes that actually fit, look much nicer than baggy clothes. I'm just sayin'... Do you ever watch the show What Not to Wear? They would have the same advise. In fact, I'm sure that's where I learned it. Keep up the good work. I am only down 5 so far, but that's good for me. :o)

    Awesome weight loss. We don't realise how disabling being overweight can be. I could hardly walk when I was at my hightest @ 210, now at least my cheek/collar bones are visible. I can walk with ease and breath in my clothes. I still have a long way to go...
    Good luck on your journey!
