    Thank you all so much!!!

    It has been a journey but I am still on it and I want to get to that 165-170 mark and then my dr wants me to get to 155 so we will see what happens from 165 I am not sure if 10 pounds will make much of a difference but hey I won't knock it till i try it:laugh:

    I have wanted this for so long and I want to say to all the people out there that are just starting........
    PLEASE STICK WITH IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If I can do it after being big my entire life, ANYONE can do it!!!!! JUst keep up the great work you are doing and you will succeed. I promise!!!!!

    I was at my boyfriends house this past weekend and I was able to wear one of his t-shirts as a night shirt and it was great, I have NEVER been able to wear a guys shirt and it be big on me, so when he gave me his to sleep in it was sareal and it felt great!!!!!!
