    You are exactly the same size and height that I am. Not sure why I had to tell you that, but it resonated with me when I read your story. You look amazing. Congrats on your dedication. (ps - Your son is a cutie)

    This is truly a success story. Many congrats on coming toe-to-toe with your depression and emotional eating. People forget that if one does not acknowledge the emotional undertow of weight gain, one is bound to gain the weight back. Much hugs,

    I like how your pictures are good examples of what different weights look like on a person. I think you look lovely in the "down to about 190 here" blue dress. But then again, I've never been a big fan of the emaciated look.

    Congratulations on your progress.

    Well done, who wouldn't want to wear a shark hat though. I'm calling shenanigans.

    What an amazing ride you've been on. Depression is a vicious, sneaky liar, and very good at making us do exactly what we DON'T want to do. You're an inspiration. Thank you for sharing this!

    Wow! I wanted to read this yesterday but my kid held my laptop hostage for the entire day with a school project, and I was stuck with my phone, which is crappy for seeing pics.

    You're so so beautiful, and the hard work you've put in really shows. You are a true inspiration!

    Wow! Congrats to you on such an amazing job! And I agree with what someone else said....seeing the different pictures and seeing what different weights look like on different people helps.
    Seeing success stories such as yours inspires me! I'm hoping that in about 8 months I'll have a success story of my own!

    YOU LOOK GREAT!

    Wow! Congrats! Very similar road for me. I'm plugging away but can't break out of the 190's. It's hard to keep one's chin up when plateaued for so long, but your story is inspiring! God bless!

    Sometimes our road is long and winding...it leaves us feeling defeated, like we just can't go on. But you recognized the inner goddess within yourself and showed the world what you are capable of. You must feel phenomenal! You look it certainly! Congrats on all your success. Cheers to a long and happy life! :drinker: :smile:
