    You make an amazing Rose Tyler!!! This is the first post I've read by a cosplayer, and I completely get it!! I am one month in and down 17 pounds. I cosplayed Daenerys from Game of Thrones at a convention here, and though I was extremely happy with the costume, I also hated the pictures! You are such an inspiration. CONGRATS!!!! :D

    You've done fantastic and look fantastic, so jealous of your Dr Who pics especially Matt Smith but it looks like you have awesome times and great memories. Well done.

    You look fantastic, brilliant stuff.
  • That supernatural angel costume is bomb, extra weight or no. But congratulations, you definitely have reason to be proud!

    Oh I super duper needed this today. I have been on MFP forever and never stick to it. I'm terrified of cosplay because of all the awful things people say about fat cosplayers. Thanks for posting, and sharing your journey. Your Rose Tylers are all awesome (she's my favorite companion).

    But it's better to be a fat cosplayer than a thin and bitter internet troll, right?

    Congrats on the weight loss! Amazing.

    I'm more jealous of you meeting all the doctors than I am your weight loss :laugh: I got to meet Alton Brown (only other thing I love as much as Doctor Who) and I could barely breathe AND he was wearing four's scarf <3 dreamy

    Congrats, fellow Whovian and fellow cosplayer! You look amazing in all your cosplays and even more amazing in the more recent ones. Cosplaying is one of my reasons for wanting to lose weight. I'm so jealous of all the people you've met! The only Doctor Who actor I've ever met was the TARDIS they use in most of the episodes, when I went to the BBC studios ;) And... wait, there's an annual cat video festival??? Why did nobody tell me?!
    Congrats again!

    First WTG!!!!! Ty for sharing and as someone who is just over 6 months into this journey it is nice to see someone who has just reached the year tracking milestone. I know I will be tracking for the rest of my life, to loose and than maintain, so nice to hear about your success.
    Also so jealous about your Doctor encounters.
