    Well done you! Amazing work! I'm so looking forward to being able to make a similar post (only 10 more pounds to go) :smile: Now for maintenance - good luck! Keep doing what you've generally be doing up to this point and you'll make it!

    You have done great!! I started near your weight and have about 40 more pounds to reach my goal. I'm also in my 50's so this shows me it is possible.

    Believe me you too can reach your goal as well. In the beginning of this journey I never thought I could do this either. But now I have proved to myself I can do it!!! Believe in yourself and you will do it.

    Hi it's me again. I've been tracking for just two weeks now. You are such an inspiration. Do u have any advice for me? I stepped on the scale this morning and was disappointed. I feel better but . . . For two years did u just try to stay within your calorie allotment and track daily and the weight came off? Did u exercise a lot? It's so great that you attained your goal. It was probably just one day at a time :) Congratulations again.

    Suggest joining a support group to help stay on track such as September's Ultimate Accountability Challenge. It's not too late to join.
