    This is THE most inspiring story I've read all week! I am 5'3" and started this journey when I hit 199 pounds, insisting that I would NOT hit 200 pounds! I am proud to say that I have basically not faltered (I say "basically" because I had a few "planned falter" days, which I am fine with) and I have been very active, usually at the gym, six days a week. I am down 11 pounds in 11 weeks, which is just fine with me, since I am giving myself a full year to lose 52 pounds. I'm 55, so I can't imagine weighing in the 120s; the 140's seem great to me right now!

    Thanks for a great story, complete with great photos! You have MUCH to be proud of!

    WOW! I mean all I can say is wow! Thank you for sharing and inspiring and paying it forward. WOW!

    Thanks! (Reading that many wows in relation to a story about me and weight loss is still sort of mind-boggling, lol. It really does take our brains a little while to catch up with reality sometimes.)

    Oh, I love the two legs in one pants leg pictures! They are like the quintessential weight loss shot from the 90's or something.

    Thanks! I tried them on on a whim when I was packing up all my old clothes to donate them before Christmas. I never imagined that I'd actually be able to stand in one leg, but I too remember all those 90s weight loss shots, and when I found that I could tug those bad boys up with both legs stuffed in one pant leg, I couldn't resist actually taking the picture and posting it here. :)

    You have just given me an extra boost that I can do this. I am starting my journey at 220 and am 5'5". I have lost 16 lbs so far and know this is a life change that will stay with me forever. (Not a diet that when I am done to gain the weight back...which I've done before).

    I can just SEE myself putting both of my legs into my size 20 jeans! Thanks for sharing and congrats! You are truely inspiration!
