    That is an incredible accomplishment, you look awesome! I hear you about the picture posting, my mom loves to take pictures when we are all together. And, she gets these candid shots of me shoveling food into my mouth...seriously unflattering pictures, and she posts and tags them on fb!

    Wow, congrats!!! You look amazing. You're a big inspiration to me :D I suffer from depression and anxiety disorders as well as being overly critical on myself, so I know where you're coming from on that! I wish you the best of luck on finishing reaching your goal. You look great and have come sooo far despite all your troubles. <3

    You are amazing and inspiring!!!! We're right around the same weight right now, but I started out at a little less than you(320lbs). I've been struggling lately and seeing everything you have accomplished and what all you have against you - it makes me feel like I can do anything because I know there is someone out there that is doing it too.

    THANK YOU for posting this and I hope that your journey takes you to all the places you've been dreaming of. Blessings!

    You look really amazing.

    One of my motivation posters is :

    Success should be measured not by how far you have come, but by the obstacles you have overcome to get there!

    By this measure, you are a HUGE success. Feel good about yourself, and keep up the good work!

    (Also, how are you treating your BPD? There is a good program by Nancee Blum from the UIowa that teaches emotional control. It is NOT therapy, but teaching skills you could not learn in your family of origin. Avoid unstructured talk therapy- it will just make it worse!)

    I was supposed to do this post when I got halfway to goal...... in getting really focused on my health I kind of missed it. ^_^()
    So I'll get the numbers out there first because I've redone them three times...They don't seem right. Anyway...

    SW: 375lbs.
    CW: 250lbs
    GW: 170lbs

    Starting size: 5X shirts, ...uhm...stretchy pants 26/28
    Current sizes: 2-3x in shirts, 18/20 in pants.

    So I've lost 120 lbs (O.o) and I have 85 to go.
    Dear, Your math is off. You've lost 125 lbs and you have 80 lbs to go. See, you just instantly lost 5 lbs. &:)
