    This is one of the best weight loss stories I've ever read. You are amazing. Thank you for posting this. I have also battled depression for years, and it has sabotaged countless attempts to lose weight. I need to lose about 300 pounds to get down to my ideal weight of 150, and I thank you for proving it can be done!

    CONGRATULATIONS! Not only on your weight loss, but on your entire lifestyle change. These things are NOT easy, but the determined person can and will achieve this. You are quite obviously the epitome of "The Determined Person" :)

    My husband and I have achieved our goal weights as well, although not nearly what you have achieved we did this in very similar ways. First weI dropped almost all red meat from our diet, we have learned to cook in healthier ways, cut fried foods almost completely out (but for the very very occasional fried treat) to include putting our deep fryer away and not using it in over a year. I started and continue to happily use splenda in place of sugar while my husband learned to limit his sugar intake. We eat more veggies and steam many of those instead of boiling them. Our addiction was bread and it has been so very hard to break this. However we have learned to greatly reduce our intake and we now eat a healthier sandwich bread. Exercise for him is hard due to lung disease, but we walk when the weather allows his lungs to do so and he's learning to do easy exercises at home the rest of the year. I get plenty of walking in at work and also exercise at home when my neck issues allow me to. I dropped 72#'s and am maintaining it easily with this new lifestyle. My husband only needed to loose about 20#'s and has done this as well.

    Thank you so much for sharing your story. I hope that it will give many many people the little push they need to get started or to continue in a hard struggle. You are a true success story!

    That much weight loss is fantastic. You must have had to have surgery for loose skin with that dramatic weight loss.......was it expensive? I know one person who has had it and said it was well worth it.

    Whoa! This just made me cry!

    Thank you for sharing your story. Although I have been regulating my diet and exercising regularly, I feel like I'm not losing a lot of weight. The people around me doesn't notice the change yet, which is upsetting. But, your story just inspires me. Thank you so much!
