    That is AMAZING! Even with the help of surgery, it still takes a LOT of effort, work and commitment to continue to lose weight. I wish you the best of luck!! :D

    You guys are so kind :) Thank you. I really don't feel successful....yet. I was happy to finally break this barrier but I still have so far to go that it's hard for me to accept that in most people's eyes this is close to a miracle.

    I just wanted to put myself out there as you never know, there may be a 644lbs lurker out there who needs to hear my story and not some BS rainbow fluff promising 200lb weight loss in 6 months. It takes a long time, and my life isn't miraculously amazing, but it has been worth it not lying in bed at night wondering if Im going to wake up.

    Thanks again for cheering me on!

    A lot of folks who are morbidly obese don't bother trying, because they feel hopeless, embarrassed, and lost. Heck, I was 230 at my highest, and I felt like that for a long time. The fact that you were 644 lbs and did not give up on yourself and kept going speaks volumes about your character and strength. You're inspiring. Own it and remember that you are so.

    Well my girl you are truely an inspiration to all. I just joined a couple of days ago and have struggled with losing 60lbs for good. Every pound is a accomplishment but when you see the long journey it is easy to get frustrated. You have inspired me and many others I'm certain. Keep it up and keep sending us your journey. It helps everyone.

    Hi Lilly, I'm glad I gave you hope :) I've always been fat, very super fat, but I AM DOING IT!

    Also, had a look at your profile! Well done on the not smoking! I quit last month using e cigs. Still on the e cigs but using it less...it really does help with the oral fixation bit...so if you fall off that wagon so to speak, please look into e cigs...they still have the nasty nicotine but it doesn't have the nasty tar or bad stuff and is a step in the right direction :) Keep on going girl you are doing FAB!
