You are very inspirational....I'm so glad I took time to read your post. I think the hardest thing is it takes so long and it's so frustrating. I do have to remember I got this way over many years and it will take at least 1-2 to take it off. I am trying to make exercise a part of my daily routine and logging food is so important and the key to making our body change.0

Holy cow, y'all! I stepped away for a bit because...well...work, LOL...and came back over and boom! 3 pages?
And I have tears in my eyes, because some of your comments are really touching, and you all are making me smile, and I can relate to so many of you because getting stuck just SUCKS.....:noway: but we get past it, and we get tougher for it (and smarter, lol), and I appreciate that y'all stopped and read and commented...

Loved, loved your story and pics! And yes, i read every word. Like many others - this type of story comes at a good time for me.
Essentially, i have made my goal too. When i started my journey (May 2013) and had to put down a goal, well - i put down what i weighed in my early 20's. I am almost 68 ! I mean - i thought - if you want to have a goal, have a good Goal! I truly Never thought that i would get down to that - 129. ( i am 5 4.5"). I mean - i haven't been there for 40 years! But - like you - through truly hard work - lots of exercise - so i could eat more - i made it. I hit 129 - 31 days ago. and have struggled to go from 129 to 131 for 31 days. I mean i am/was thinking - well - maybe this is where i am meant to be. Then i read your entire post - and got to the plateau that you hit for 8 weeks! 31days? babytime - i have 30 more to go! So i will continue. Everyone is telling me - you look great - don't lose anymore. But----I want to have that safety room - so i can finally maintain and not worry about gaining a few. Two weeks ago i started weight training and am loving it. Before that - it was massive cardio - i am a cyclist and do love to push myself.
So don't be daunted by age 50 - you are just getting started on your next life!
Congrats - enjoyed the tale.0 -

Loved reading your story, CONGRATULATIONS!! Very inspirational. I especially loved your quote, "will workout for wine!" That would be the last thing I would ever give up! Thanks for sharing it comes at a good time for me since I feel I have been struggling with somewhat of a plateau and have been working out and tracking food for 8 weeks, but expected more weight loss by now....needing more patience and perseverance!!!0

Wow, you have done an amazing job and are an inspiration for me! I have the same health issues that you have and am also in my 40's and keep thinking if I am just suppose to be this big but you have proved that isn't the case. Congrats!0

Fantastic job & results! Love your spirit. Thanks for sharing!0

Such an awesome transformation!!!!! I also barely recognized you in your before picture. You look amazing. And 50 is totally the new 30. Which makes me 11. Am I allowed to work out for wine?0

What a wonderful story and amazing progress. You should be so proud!
I'm having the same problem in those 150's - weight keeps going up and down for the last 4 weeks but I know I can get through to the other side. Thanks for the inspiration. Exactly what I needed today!!:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

Congratulations!!! Thanks for posting this in such detail! It really drives home the point that plateaus are not stopping points and an over 40 metabolism is no excuse! Two things I need to remember...again, thanks for the post and enjoy your healthy life...0
