Great work! That is a hard road to go down but you have made such strides!

That is a huge battle won. Good for you!!

Thank you so much for sharing your story. 165 pounds lost - that is fantastic!! But what I think is better is the activity you can now do and how the world must have opened up for you!! Congratulations. :)

OMG - you look great! Truly an inspiration.

Way to go!

Still a work in progress. Almost half way to my goal - Onederland is close Starting weight 250 - picture on right Current weight 203 - picture on left was as 207. Height 5'2"

What are the good creams to use on your skin as you are losing the weight? I have to say that was my biggest fear about losing weight because of all the television shows about it. However I think those are the extreme. I am almost 50, have had two kids, and know I will not snap back like someone in their 20's who have not…

great job!

Great job

Great job and story!

Big difference! You doing great.

Going into a clothing store and realizing that I have more options available to me. Almost out of the Big girl clothes and can now look in the XL section of regular clothing stores.

A few for me here 1. Went shopping with my MIL who is always very negative. Tried on a few things and she actually said, wow you are doing great! 2. Found a London Fog coat in a consignment shop size XL and walked out with it! My first nice work coat in years. 3. Went for my walk the other day and actually included bursts…

I hate to say this but it depends - On how much you have to lose What your height it Are the clothes you are currently wearing really tight, loose, etc I have to say I really started to notice around 20 pounds. SW was 250 and height 5'2"

Good Morning - had a bad day yesterday. Did not make my 10K step goal, went out to dinner, and even though I measured my snack yesterday had way too much. Went over my calorie goal for the day. Woke up this am and felt like crap. I guess I learned my lesson. I did walk this am and pushed through the head ache. On to…

I am going to Disney world for 4 days and then a 7 day cruise. My goal in August is to weigh what I did at the end of July.

Thank you everyone. I used to love cereal but thinking back I was always hungry about an hour or two later. I usually eat breakfast around 6am and then lunch around 12pm. Eggs do fill me up better and a banana or a few nuts hold around 10am hold me until lunch.

Great job! Celebrate the victories along the way. You look great!

An elephants heart and a guinea pig!

Great progress! Really noticeable.

Hi there. I am 5'2" also. SW 250 CW 205 GW 150 I think I started to really notice the difference in my clothes around 25 pounds. Take your measurements - waist, bust, hips, etc. and that will give you a better idea. Now at 45 pounds there is a really big difference.

Your daughters post was beautiful. Great job on your weight loss and healthier life style.

I am 5'2" SW: 250, size 24 pants, 2X shirt CW: 205, size 18 pants, XL shirt GW 150 - can't wait to see where I land.

That is a great start! Keep up the good work

All I can say is WOW. I am half way through my journey, have about the same to lose, and you have inspired me to continue and keep going.

Hello everyone. My name is Janeanne and I am hitting that magical 5 0 next month. In August we are going to spend 4 days in Disney World, and then take a 7 day cruise. My goal is to walk as much as I can and make smart choices while on vacation. I do not intend on depriving myself and know that I may gain a few pounds but…

Thanks for all the suggestions. I will start looking at it again.

You look fantastic

Great job

Still have a ways to go - want to lose another 58
