How I suck at weight loss

You look completely amazing! Thank you for sharing your story. It's an amazing example that loving how you look isn't just about how much you weigh.

I think that it's harder for people who are overweight by less than those who are really heavy. When you are really heavy and get cranking on watching foods and exercising, the weight tends to drop off in big chunks.

I have older two sisters who are skinny minis, both under 140 lbs. They also have a completely different body type than I do.

But they have found their weigh increasing as they got older. So when they had to take off ten or twenty pounds, it took them much longer and it was harder for them to do then it was for me to lose forty. I was losing a couple pounds a week and they weren't.

I think that your photos are amazing and you have held firm for the long-term and kept going even without seeing those losses that the grocery store magazines write about "Drop two dress sizes in ten days!".

We are all in this battle here, but it's a battle against our old selves and we're winning! Congrats on your win!!
