Thank you everyone, for all your comments and supports. Things have been pretty busy since I originally posted, but good news is that even with all the craziness, I've managed to drop into the "30"'s for the first time in over 15yrs....I weighed in today at 238 Total loss is now 53 :)

LOL no I am not 54, I am 38.....But I lost my mom 3 months after her 54th birthday....

Thank you very much!!! Still working on 40 more lbs for now...but I've got nothing but time :)

Thank you very much :)

Thank you!!!! and LMBO...I'd love to play Photoshop with my pictures but ehhhhh it is what it is....

Thank you!!

You look fantastic, keep up the great work!

Awesome job!!! You look fantastic!

Thank you!!

Thank you very much!!!

I do that a lot honestly. I will gain and lose the same 3-5lbs I've just lost for a week. At that point I look at what I'm eating and I change up my exercise routine, either giving myself a break and walking the 60 mins, or I will increase my jogging intervals to work my body harder. Usually one or both will do the trick…

Awesome job!!! Keep up the great work, it really shows, and it shows in your smile in the second picture!!

Thank you...I did post this again, not being able to figure out how to post pictures so there is another with pics if you'd like to see the difference. I wish you luck on your journey as well!!! It's well worth the time and effort!

I work out on a minimum of 4 to 5x a week for 60 mins a day. I also watch my calories and what I'm eating. For some reason when mother nature makes her visits I don't bloat, but could be that you are eating too much sodium. Check your labels...I also drink a ton of water.... It definitely doesn't happen overnight, but it…

Thank you! and LOL I said the same thing when I took the picture...Heck I can even see my waist now....lol

Thank you sooo much!! I'm sure we'll be reading about you soon!

Absolutely Phenomenal!! Great Job!!!!

Thank you guys so much!! It's been a long, but very rewarding road. I'm not done, still have at least another 40lbs I'm working towards and then we will see how I feel. It's funny Nola, cause a male friend of mine told me something similar about not just getting healthier and losing the pounds but turning back the…

Awesome job!!!

Do they not have Fiber one bars there in the UK? Dang, that would be a bummer....But I"m sure if you look around the store they have to have something simular. THey are usually sold here in the breakfast bar aisle at the grocery store. I've struggle for years too, but don't let it get to you. I am now 38 years old and just…

HI there....Don't get discouraged....The best piece of advice I have been given on this journey is this: You didn't gain the weight overnight, over a week, or even over a year.....So it's going to take time for it to come back off....I started my journey at 291 in August 2011 and today I am now at 246. 45lbs lighter! I…

HI there!! Ultimately at the end of this journey my total amount lost will be 141lbs. I've got 96lbs more to go. I started in Aug 11 at 291 and today I'm at 246. It's a great feeling to have gotten this far and I can't wait to see what's in store as the numbers keep going down down down :)
