    Thank you for sharing your story so completely and honestly. My journey will most likely take more than a year to complete, which is why seeing your success is so inspiring to me. Also, I very much appreciate that you summarized the helpful lessons you learned throughout this process. Please look out for a friend request from me.

    I relate to you so much! I was nearly 300lb when I started (47lb left to go) and I feel you with the hair! You are absolutely gorgeous and I love your style- The red check dress you're wearing is on my "Buy when get to goal" list :) Seriously well done.

    Wow, I hope to be writing a success story post just as you have! Really inspirational - I am actually tearing up and really motivated by your journey!

    I started my journey at 201 pounds, and I am only 5 foot 5!

    I am now down to 178 pounds and goal is 143/147 pounds - still heavy for my frame but I was at a happy maintainable weight then.

    Did you really lose just but walking and jogging? I am doing this myself, doing 3kms in 30min 6 days per week but want to add weight lifting when I get to 152 pounds...

    Seeing photos other people had taken of me was always disheartening even after losing 100+ lbs, but I knew the only way to change that was to keep going! Just keep swimming :)

    Congrats on the weight you've lost so far! And for the most part, yes I did. I wanted to reach my goal weight before getting in to any weight lifting or resistance training, so 2016 will be the year I focus on toning up and losing a few more inches rather than the number on the scale.
