    Thank you so much for sharing your story!! I finally am losing the weight AFTER realizing I had to deal with the uncomfortable feelings and emotions instead of stuffing down food. It has really made the difference this time around.

    You look amazing!!! Congratulations! :flowerforyou:

    This is one of the BEST success stories I have read here!! I love your description of your journey. And thank you for sharing your weigh ins! I get so frustrated on those weeks when nothing happens (or I gain), but I can see by your weigh ins that it all works out in the end!!!

    Thank you! MFP and Geneen's Practical Eating Guidelines are clicking well for me too. Ever since I started incorporating both, the weight is starting to come off. I still have my bad days but I have the tools. Seeing your transformation has been motivating. You are an inspiration and thank you for sharing your story! :drinker:
