Congratulations on your extreme weight loss. Truly amazing. I need to lose a "person" too. lol.
It makes me think of the first season of the biggest loser, you know the one where I would watch the show while eating snacks on the couch wishing I had their determiniation? In that first season about half way into it, they made the contestants strap on a back pack with the amount of weight they had lost to date. Some people where carrying 50, 60, 80 pounds at that point. As if that wasn't enough they had to run around a high school track with their former weight strapped to their back. So picture yourself running around the track with a 126 pound person piggy back. Don't bet yourself up, give yourself credit! You are amazing.0 -
Awwww honey, what a great post. We often have to remind ourselves about the things we have got and remain grateful and and thankful in the present, NOW. NOW you have lost that whole person you were carrying. NOW you have the knowledge and ability to walk forward with your head held high!! NOW you are HEALTHY and look AMAZING!!!
Sure you want to lose another 20 - 30 lbs, so do I!! But dont let that burden you, or drag you down. Live your life and rest assured that we are going to have a party while we continue this journey.
Love ya, you're beautiful0 -

Wow. You have accomplished so much! That is incredible. I'm just on my first week (again) back on MFP and am struggling with my own drive, focus and motivation. This story is so inspirational to me. You've lost an entire person! That is so amazing. You should feel so very proud of your hard work and determination! It makes me want to do better and work harder so I will have a similar experience this time next year. Thank you for posting this. Keep that positive attitude! You're amazing.0

This is why I am slowly (ok, maybe head over heals quickly) falling in love with this site!
I have a faith in my journey this time that I have never felt before and whenever I even waiver for one moment I come one here and remind myself that it IS possible....
Posts like yours are the reason I know it will be done this time.
I will finally conquer this part of my life, 30 years of struggle to want to be something I felt I wasn't, and I will finally have it within a year...
THank-you for opening yourself up to strangers like me, because its reading posts like yours that gets me through the tough times...
Can't WAIT to read your 'I've reached goal' post!0 -
You look amazing!! I am so proud of you....you are truely an inspiration to us all! I cant wait until I lose my other person!0

Thank you! I needed to read this! I was sitting here feeling bad about taking 4 months to lose 25 lbs. I was thinking I was way behind schedule. An unrealistic schedule I made up in my mind, I might add! Reading what you wrote gave me that thump in the head that I needed. I need to count my blessings and appreciate what I have accomplished so far.... Thank you again! You look marvelous, by the way! Continued blessing to you!
