    Great inspiration. Great job! Can I add you to my group?
    A story: Yesterday someone came to work with us on our dog's OCD on light reflections. As she was training her, at one point, our dog just sighed and relaxed. That's when she resigned herself to the new reality of life with light reflection limits and submitted to the training. How do I find that in me? That realization that it is EVERY DAY and a whole new way of life not just a short term FIX? You got it. Was it (the mindset) hard to find? It is easier to find once you see results!!!! Congrats again. Thanks for letting me ramble...

    You started at about the same place as I did, weight-wise, but I've not had quite as much success. Good for you! You're doing wonderfully! :-)

    It is too big!! How do I resize it?

    go back to photobucket, click on edit, pick photo, click on resize, select 600 as your width then apply and click on the replace original, save

    now you dont have to re-post the picture, it will automatically update your original post.

    keep up the awesome work.

    I guess my biggest tip would be DON'T QUIT!! I have to tell myself that everyday. Don't stop. Don't you give up on yourself.

    I've also been extremely candid with family and friends. I share my success and failure right out in the open for everyone to see.

    I also have realized the extreme importance of not letting myself get too hungry. I have to eat to live. I know that!

    The other thing is just start slow. Do what you can, as much as you can, when you can. I usually know I'm doing that when I'm a little nervous before a workout and when I'm a little shaky afterwards.

    You can do it! Don't give up on you!

    It is too big!! How do I resize it?

    Firstly, you look amazing!!! I know you still have 120 lbs to go, but honestly, you're already starting to look FIT -- it's like you can tell that you've become active, not just restricted your calories. GO YOU!!

    Secondly, if you go into the image on photobucket, go to edit -> resize -> make it 550 wide and save it. Then use the direct link to the smaller saved image to post it here :smile:.

    Awesome work !

    Here are two motivational quotes I keep near my weights:

    "Excuses are the nails used to build a house of failure."

    "The only way to make your dreams come true is to wake up."

    Keep up the good work.

    When you're having a "tough day"...just look at the beautiful smile on your face in that latest picture. That should put you back on track! Wishing you continued success. You've found the key. It's all up to you.

    Mandy! Look at you gal! You are doing this! You are THAT person each of us struggles everyday to find inside of us. Do you realize that? You've found that woman deep inside of you who will not be hidden any longer and she is not going to lose the fight either. She's already winning! Remember to savor how far you've come and why. You are an inspiration to many I'm here and we will choose to follow you and the fight within that is so strong! Thank you for sharing and daring to be a loser!!! :) Congrats!
