    Thanks for sharing your inspirational story. You look fantastic!

    I think an important lesson here is to just stick with it, no matter how long it takes. Each day you were a little bit healthier than the previous one. 173 pounds in 2.5 years is an average loss of 1-1.5 pounds a week. So many of us start this journey wanting to lose 20 pounds a month and to be "done" losing weight quickly, and when it doesn't happen we give up. You've shown that sticking with it for the long haul pays off. Well done!!

    Funny you say this, I had an old roommate introduce himself to me at a bar and a friend from college I hung out with frequently not know who I was. It's surreal. It's happened so many times!

    I am glad to read your story today bc i felt a little down, yesterday I share my ultimate goals with a love one and got laughed at, I was told my goal was impossible. But reading your story gives me hope that I can get there too.
    May I ask how are u dealing with lose skin if any?
