    That is so inspirational, congratulations! It CAN be done, you've proven that. I am just starting, weight 206, looking to get down to 160 or below. What was it that you did in the first month that was helpful in getting you started..? Thank you.

    Congrats!!! What an inspiration for me since I am just starting my journey and need to lose 100+ too. It's great to see someone achieve success and reinforce the idea that this will not happen overnight, but it will happen.

    Congratulations!

    I'm also going for +100lbs. I'm interested to know how you feel different - changes in your body that you feel, or health - like knees for instance. :)

    To Julie0101

    The first thing I did was not to get discouraged. I did not put all this weight on overnight. I tried to stay within my calories and not go over. I also tried to go to the gym at least 4 to 5 times a week for at least 30min. I read that you are supposed to eat some of your calories that burned off. I did not do this in the beginning. I eat some of my burned calories now but not all. Another thing I found is that if you stick with it and try not to think of it as a diet but as a life style change it is better. I have failed diets but when you change your whole life around calorie counting and eating correct proportions and exercising. You seem to stick with it better. I know I have and will never go back to the old me. It was never easy and probably could not do it without my wife and MFP but as I look back at old pictures and see where I was a year and 6 months ago I know I am a much stronger person inside and out. I hope this helps you and anyone else reading this. WE CAN ALL DO IT.
  • WOW!!! Congratulations!!

    I feel great. I have had to go out and get new clothing because my wife says my old clothing is way to big for me now. I work in maintance and I climb up stairs very often at work. Before I would huff and puff just to get up stairs but now. No huffing or puffing. I have more energy throughout the day. Also I have been doing some light jogging after work with my wife. I can tell you this that big people are not supposed to jog and or run. The body is not meant to. With that 100lbs lost it is a lot easier to jog not so much pressure on the knees and joints. The funny thing I did the other day was I went to the store and tried to carry to 50 pound bags of potatoes. Lets just say I do not know how I carried all that weight before and I am so glad its gone. Good luck with your weight loss and remember it takes time. I did not put all this weight on overnight. You can do it.
