    I soooooo see myself in you. Except I'm trailing you. Hopefully if I keep it up I will look just as good. Thanks for posting this because I really needed to know your journey and see what the results are.

    This is one of the most amazing and inspiring things to me! I am so amazed that you have done so well! Plus, while losing the weight, you are quite toned! I am in awe and am so happy you started this thread because everyone in the same situation has been given hope. You have given so many people hope! Thank you!

    Did you (or anyone else here who has lost 100+ lbs) have problems with excess skin? I'm young and because of that everyone keeps telling me as I loose the skin will snap back, but this stuff has been stretched out for a looooooong time.
    I have some, but just on my lower tummy and inner thighs.

    Eat well, exercise (including strength training), moisturize, drink plenty of water, and be patient.
    Other than that, age and genetics will play a big role.

    Wow. That is astonishing, and you have worked so incredibly hard to make yourself a better person I can't even wrap my mind around it.

    This may have been made to address the men and women with more weight to lose then I do, but I found it equally inspirational and just..mind blowing.
