I have come to the end of my journey and it has gotten so hard. From 300+ pounds I have gotten to 165. It is so lonely on this journey and it seemed so much easier before. I am determined to finish this and stick to it, even if i get so frustrated I want to cry and scream, but I never want to give up, in that 6 years I have never given up. I'm hoping I can find a group of people who will support me and receive support from me on this hard and lonely journey, I can do it alone, we all can. But it is so much harder that way, let's please do this together.

    How did you loose the 1st part of your weight?

    Losing all of that weight takes a ton of effort and determination, so you should be proud about that! As for the rest of the weight, I have no clue. I've heard the final few pounds are tough and I've never been low enough to have to deal with that. I suppose just continue to stick with it and remember how far you've come. Best of luck.

    Keep up the good work! People like you motivate me to ditch remaining 90 pounds I have left to lose.

    Cheers from Finland!

    first of all way to go! secondly the last amount of weight will take longer to lose, you just have to be patient. I know it sucks but you have come this far, you can go the rest of the way and get to where you want to be.remember weight loss is a marathon not a sprint.

I always dieted to lose it and when I did I never really did any maintenance this time I am keeping it off for good. If u want to be friends I will be glad to help any way I can feel free to add me. Either way I wish u luck
