After a life long battle with obesity I feel as I may have won! At my highest I was near 300lbs and I now weigh in at 165. I'm off my blood pressure medication! Woot! It's hard I won't lie- I love to eat. But I learned that I still could eat everything that I love just not a whole bag/box/carton of it at a time :)

    Way to go!! You look fantastic!! I bet you feel much better too! Get around easier, no more feeling like your out of breath going up a flight of stairs etc. I know I used to feel like I was about to pass out going up a simple flight of stairs myself.

    What was your first NSV? Mine was being able to cross my legs again without having to pull the other leg over and holding it in place lol First time I could cross my legs without even thinking about it I freaked out and laughed. My kids cracked up saying how funny it was that something so simple makes me happy. :laugh: Cheers to you and more success!

    Excellent work, you not only look beautiful, but well toned, happy, healthy, shiny hair and confident. I don't know how to post pics in the threads or I would help you out, I know many more would respond if the pics could be viewed inside the post. You are an inspiration and have worked hard and long and remained dedicated to have such a wonderful success story. God Bless
