    Awesome job! I love the things that you had to say about what losing weight is doing for your outlook on life too! It's fantastic that you chose to make a lifestyle change instead of going for a "quick fix" weight loss method. I hope it's something that sticks with you for life!

    I learned the hard way that diets and quick fixes aren't the answer if I had any intention of keeping the weight off. Thank you so much! Same to you :)

    and to everyone else, thanks so much for the support and kind words! Making my day.

    You look fantastic! I'm 18 too, and started off in August last year at 193lbs so pretty similar SW. I had a few months in maintenance, because I needed to concentrate on exams, but it's posts like yours that motivate me to be the best person I can! Keep up the good work.
