    What an inspiration! Congrats on your lifestyle change, you look fantastic!! Thanks for sharing your story as well. Sometimes people are reluctant to be open and share their stories because of judgment from others, but it's people like YOU that share these stories that motivate others!!

    Wow, you're doing an awesome job.

    You said a lot of things in your post, but I think the thing that rang the most true for me is "getting happier helps you lose weight". I think we are always under the impression that it's the other way around, but I think I will try it your way (the other way is not working for me!). I will work on getting happy (job, love life, etc.) and then concentrate on the weight loss.

    Thanks for that little tidbit!

    I love your approach. The only part I don't get is where you say: "So while still clearly far away from "success"...."

    You are absolutely a success right now. Awesome job!

    This is amazing and your attitude is awesome :) It's amazing to think that you've already dropped a whole full-sized adult off your back.

    Great Job Ted!! I know first hand the journey you are on and the road seems so long.. I remember when I hit that 150 lb. loss mark and everyone was so supportive and congratulating me but all I could think about was yeah well I still weigh 410 lbs. but stay focused, stay the course, and I am here to tell you that in the end, it will ALL Be Worth it..... I am living proof of that.... Again Congrats!! and continued Success in 2014 and beyond!!! :drinker:
