I started my journey about 1y8m ago. ..When I started I weighed about 230lbs....I was a "big" girl wearing size 20 pants and xl to 1x shirts. NEVER!!!! would I have imagined I would be 168 lbs by using this site and keeping it OFF!!!! Lately a lot of people have been saying how good I look but yesturday I had a couple people who didn't know me call me "SKINNY" can you BELIEVE IT!!!! I have NEVER been called SKINNY. They didn't know who I was before, nice to hear----AMAZING moment for me!!:blushing:

You have come a long way, and i am glad we were able to do this somewhat together. funny, my gyno called my skinny yesterday too, i was like, what? me? who? its hard, but i try to take the compliments and run, which is easier than it sounds, ha?
