Congrats! I don't seem to have to resilience to keep up with it, i get discouraged easily ):
If you don't mind me asking, how long did it take to get to whatever your current weight is?0 -

Wow, what an inspiration you are. I long for the days that people can see in my face that I've lost a significant amount of weight--you look like a different person! I've lost almost 20 lbs and no one can tell! I guess that's the problem with being 100 lbs overweight. I look at the difference in your before and after pics and I am extra motivated--thanks for sharing!:happy:0

Amazing!! Great Job!! you will get there in no time!!0

You guys... seriously... I want to package you all up and store you in my pocket for the bad days! THANK YOU!
Just a few other changes (motivation for those who are just starting):
- Type 2 diabetic since I was 16... originally on 2 kinds of insulin (4 shots a day) AND 4 different diabetes pills... now, I am down to half of a pill (and that's just for cautionary purposes... I don't actually need it).
- My blood pressure went from 200-plus over 110-plus to 120/60.
- I can tie my shoes while sitting in a chair now... couldn't get past my stomach before... for that matter, I can touch my feet, clip my toenails, wash my feet, etc., easily.
- I had sleep apnea and wore a big ole CPAP machine every night for a few years. Don't need it now... it's been collecting dust in the garage.
- I can wear a freaking seatbelt again without a seatbelt extender. Haven't been able to do that for YEARS! Can fit in a booth at a restaurant.
- I can go shopping, etc., without wanting to die in the first 5 minutes from huffing and puffing like the big bad wolf.
Focussing on the small things is a good way to stay motivated. Keep in tune with your body and ... it will be telling you THANK YOU!!!
Persistence... not perfection!0 -

If you can't tell the difference in your face, I certainly can... I can't even tell you how inspired this has made me to get started and lose 70-100 lbs myself. Keep up the absolutely INCREDIBLE work!!! You deserve a lot of credit for sticking with it!!! :drinker:0
