    That is awesome. That is the way I started getting more active. Just walking around the store. I started at 394lbs. In the last 16 months I've lost between 70-80lbs. Sometimes I fall off the wagon and gain 5 - 10 lbs than lose it again. Would like to be friends. We can help support each other.

    You have done awesome.
    I also have problems with going out but its an anxiety thing.
    Its a massive step forward for you and you have conquered it like a champ.
    Well done. Keep it up!

    That is amazing!
    This really hit home with me, as I was in a similar boat (being stuck inside due to weight and anxiety). It really is awesome to feel like you are living again, keep it up & know that you can find success! One step at a time (:
