    That's amazing! Did you ever hit a point, where it seemed you got 'stuck' and had trouble moving past that point? Also, about the skin point, for me, it makes me really self conscious dating, bc i know, once i get to that point with someone, without the clothes, it's a little different than what someone my size would look like who never gained/lost the weight (I've lost ~85 lbs, and I've got about 40 to go). It's been really hard for me to get under 180. I don't know if it's more motivation to stick to the diet strictly or life circumstances (my docs says im doing good). I lost my job, found out my brother had leukemia, and got seriously injured (couldn't walk/exercise) for several months. I gained 10 lbs during that time, and i'm back to down to 184 now and back exercising again. Were you with your fiance before the weight loss? (sorry for the long reply..)

    Wow--you have become one of those that actually looks like a different person. But I guess you are! Seems like you are making smart, long term decisions, which is the only way it ever really works. Congrats!

    My fiancé and I were together before I lost the second half of my weight (So from 270 to now) and he is super supportive about all of it. I have pretty bad self esteem issues unfortunately and I constantly point out my flaws like my skin on my thighs and he always just says he thinks I'm perfect no matter what. I think most of our own "flaws" are what we make up in our own heads.

    Truly inspiring! I want to loose 150 but my first major goal is I want to loose 100-120 by May 2018. I too am getting married and have lost poned looking for a dress until I feel comfortable trying any on. I have lost 30 in the past 2 1/2 months so far so I'm on the right track. I've been eating healthy and exercising since Jan and my now fiancé proposed in feb. so now I have even more motivation to loose. Seeing your progress pics really helps too and I would love to follow you!

    WOW You look fantastic! 20 more pounds by Nov, You Can Do IT! Congratulations on your upcoming wedding. Have you gotten your dress ordered yet? I am sure you will have lots to choose from and will look so beautiful in it.

    I actually have a dress already I was lucky and got one at a sample sale a month ago. It's a size 10 which is my current size but I'm more than happy getting it resized :)

    You look WAYY thinner btw than a 10 I was like why 20lbs?!? Won't she disappear! LOL But congrats and good luck! Size 10 isn't that thin (although it is fine to me to stay there if you felt like it!) so Im not so worried now haha. Good luck! :) Keep going ! You can do it! Part of why I want to reach my goal is to get married too. I'm not getting married in Nov. but November-December is actually my goal and I have way more to lose LOL 60-65lbs! So if I can do that you can do 20lbs :blush: You WILL!
