    Great progress and I admit I'm extremely jealous of it. :drinker: :flowerforyou:

    Jealous??? You have lost more weight than me! You have no be jealous of me. We are on this long, hard road together. :heart:

    You look wonderful. Congratulations. I started my journey a week ago and have a very long way to go. I am 66 years old and started at 265 lbs not far from you. I hope I have the success you have had.

    Thanks for the reminder that losing 100 or more lbs takes time and that it did not go on overnight... You are such an inspiration. I am currently stalled in my weight loss. I've been at it for over a year and a half - but am trying to stick with it - and won't give up. I just need to read success stories like yours to try and get my motivation back to where it belongs...! Thanks!

    I hit plateaus from time to time; and it can be frustrating to see little to no progress; but also know that I must kept going, because the day will come, when I will start losing. If I give up in the hard times, I will only go backward and feel even worse.

    The month of July was a very tough month for me with little weight loss, but today is another day. I know that progress is coming, while I stay faithful to my food plan and calorie limits.

    Congratulations on your success you are an inspiration to a lot of people who are working @ weight loss me especially. I have currently lost a total of 45lbs however on my thing it only shows 20lbs because I didn't know about my fitness pal until after I had started working at my weight loss for a couple months. I still have another 30lbs to go & you are showing me it's possible. Thanks!!!!!

    Thank you so much for sharing your story. I'm 61 and on my first diet in 20 years. I've lost 21 lbs in 2 months but when I think that I have so much more to lose it can be overwhelming. I will remember your words and story when I hear the voice of defeat in my head! Thanks again for giving me hope and the strength to forge ahead.

    You look fabulous, super inspirational!

    I was having one of those days where I want to be lazy and eat everything, and this was a great reminder of why I'm doing this and that it can be done! :flowerforyou:

    3 meals and snacks each day is normal for me. I eat 1100 to 1200 calories per day...regular food, including things like pizza, ice cream and many other favorites. I just make sure to have them within my calories for the day.

    you look great. i know people your age who since i was a child wished they could lose weight but always told themselves and others that theyd be dead soon anyways. well its been about 25 years theyre still alive and overweight. never attempting to really go for it. so you go girl! god bless you . you should be very proud of yourself.
