    You're an inspiration!! Welcome to MFP! And good luck with your last 20! You have done ridiculously well already though!! What mental changes have you noticed since your loss? Confidence etc? x

    I have noticed slow progress in my self confidence. I have been in several emotionally abusive relationships, and I settled a lot of the time because I didn't think I could do much better. That was part of the reason I wanted to make this change in my life. I was tired of just settling for what life gives me. So, losing weight became something I wanted more than anything in life - I saw all of the opportunities it opened for me and I went for it.

    Now, I am in a wonderfully healthy relationship with someone that supports me and even tells me NO! when I want to cheat. Haha! I think my self confidence is slowing starting to catch up with my weight loss - but even my body image has suffered. There are days that I see my reflection and I just can't even believe that is me. That is a surreal feeling. Another one is how I am treated in stores - or how men flirt with me.

    I think the other biggest one was how I feel about having pictures taken of me. I used to hate it, but I don't even mind much anymore when I see people taking pictures. That is an awesome feeling.

    You're such an inspiration!

    I'm adding this post to my browser favorites. This is exactly how I want my story to go. I started my journey needing to lose exactly as many pounds as you did in the beginning, we are both trying to accomplish our goals via a low carb lifestyle, and I even think we're the same height, shorties unite! LOL

    You are truly MY inspiration. When I see your pictures and read your story, I see me a year from now (hopefully) :)
