in Motivation and Support
I suppose this should be in the Success Stories section, but I still need a ways to go for me to consider myself a proper "success story", so I thought it might serve as motivation for some.

After about a year of losing weight, being lazy at times, and plateauing for a couple of months, I finally am under 200 pounds! For me, this is a huge milestone as I have been obese for my whole life, and this is the smallest I have ever been in adulthood. I am almost at my first big goal of a hundred pounds lost, and still need a lot of work to get to my second goal of hitting 150. However, I'm well on my way again, and just thought I'd share this to let you know that if I can do it, anyone can. Don't give up, and keep fighting!


I don't really have many pictures, but I'll try to find some. :3

Good luck with you all!

    That's just amazing! I know the feeling, you must be so so so happy. Even though I say and know that numbers do not reflect reality, I had a happy dance when the scale hit the 199 lbs mark.
    I am so proud of you! Keep it up! :>
