    Congrats on your success! How many calories did u eat during your weight loss period?

    Thank you. My calories varied. I did a variety of calorie adjustments to keep the body guessing and not getting comfy. Spike dieting, zig zagging cals all work well for me.

    Fantastic! Great job, not just in the loss, but for maintaining it, especially during such hard times. You are an inspiration! :)

    Wow, what great accomplishment! Losing weight is difficult but I am sure the hardest thing is to keep the weight off. I have been on here about 4 years too and my weight has gone up and down from 260 to about 215. I am about 230 right now, but afraid to step on the scale because I have been a little lazy lately and have not been eating right. I am still here and still trying. I hope to be under 200 lbs this year and am in the process of getting it together now lol. I will also send you a friend request:)

    I would love to be friends with you. I am very very close to my goal (About 2-3 pounds) and I am a little nervous about maintaining as I have never been successful at it. I do believe I have what it takes this time. Having someone like you to give some advice or encouragement would be great! You are an inspiration! 1500 days logging is incredible! And with so many reasons that you could have made excuses to not stay on track, but chose to not give in to excuses, but instead make adjustments is so SMART!!

    Wow, that certainly is a lot of bad luck, but you made it through! That is truly a great accomplishment and one I hope I can do also. I have a lot of weight to lose and have the same issue of eating when times are tough.

    Congratulations! I have also lost (and kept off) 100 lbs, so I know how hard it is. I have been stuck around the 100 lb mark for awhile, and need to lose 22 lbs more. Feel free to add me!

    Congratulations not only on the loss and maintaining but also on all the recoveries you had to go through. I am almost halfway to goal and still have a long journey ahead. Was hoping to get there by my 60th birthday but it doesn't look possible now. Maybe by the end of the 60th birthday. Keep going strong and if your interested in being friends let me know. I can use all the support I can get and I can also offer some support.
