    Wonderful post. Thanks so much for this, a great way to start the day. You have it in perspective; I will do well to keep what you've said in mind. Hit small goals on the way to a greater good. It can be tempting to despair when the end goal seems a little too far off.

    Great job on your loss. I love setting small goals and surpassing them, it helps me keep going. I have had very similar feelings and started my journey, mortified, at 304.2. I am officially down 46lb and feel on top of the world accomplishing something I haven't seen since I was in my freshman year of college (almost 6 years ago). Keep it up!

    First of all, congratulations. It's a wonderful feeling. I remember it well.

    I've been on this journey a bit longer than you and I've had the pleasure of hitting "onederland", too....proof that it can be done. My top weight was 330. That's mighty close to yours!

    Buy a cheap set of resistance bands and when you can't get to the gym, use them in your own home. (http://tinyurl.com/af9roj5)

    Keep it up, lady. You can do it!

    Something about your post really spoke to me. Many of the feelings and thoughts you describe are very familiar to me. And of course, congratulations! You have worked hard, you have found what works for you, and you have started to make the right choices for your health and your happiness for many years to come.

    This method does work, so keep going! Don't be afraid to experiment with new activities or try new foods. Eat real unprocessed food as much as you can. Expect that there will be setbacks, demoralizing weeks, and days when you feel like you've lost your motivation and you just want to quit. Have a plan to deal with those challenges before they happen and have a strategy to keep you pushing through!

    Once upon a time, I never thought I would be able to really lose weight, but it's possible for anyone who's ready to commit to success. I started on MFP 11 months ago and gradually made changes. I added more activity, slowly removed the processed junk from my menus, and learned how to cook veggies and fish and legumes in delicious and healthy ways. I didn't spend any money for plans or supplements, and I didn't do anything drastic or insane. Slowly but surely, it worked, and I was amazed! Now I find myself more than 80 pounds down with the final goal in sight.
