    That is awesome, and I can totally understand. I feel like since I hit that magic number a couple weeks ago I've gotten "comfortable". You can do it!!! Just like I know I can make it past this too. Amazing job!!!

    Wow, you look amazing. Usually it's easy to tell it's the same person in before and after pictures but if you didn't tell us, I would say without any doubt they are two different people.

    Amazing is all I can say. Super job!

    Ricky you are my hero. Only way I would know it was you, was your nose. WTG!! Your my hero. My goal is 120 lb loss. So I'm with you. How are you doing with loose skin? I am losing approximately 2lbs a week, everythings fine so for. Thinking the next 40-50 lbs could have issues. Anyway, continue being everyones champion and inspiration! You can do it!

    I have just 17 lbs to go until I reach my goal. I could really use a push. Currently 207, goal of 190. Every time I get to 200 I get relaxed on my dedication!

    I found a great shot of me before to compare to!

    Skin is definitely an issue. I knew going into it that I would probably have loose skin but I am just learning to deal with it as a consequence of my prior lifestyle. I was hoping I was young enough, ~27, but no. I too went about 2 lbs per week. I will never be able to take my shirt off and it kinda saddens me every time I look in the mirror. It will be impossible to ever meet someone special because I always have to give a disclaimer "Oh, I make look relatively normal....but I am actually a monster under the layers of clothing".....instant rejection lol.

    One thing I really suggest if you run into issues are support clothing. I wear a compression undershirt which has been a godsend. It's mainly my lower abdomen.

    Regardless, it's worth it.

    Also, thank you all for your kind words and responses. I am sorry i was delayed in responding. i definitely feel younger and have more energy.

    I'm really trying to get back on track but even the last few days I have been rather bad. I appreciate all of your support and comments and will hopefully post back with some progress!
