Congratulations and thank you for an honest and heartfelt post. I know I am not the only person that is inspired by your story and your spirit. Wish me luck as I recommit to my journey of becoming healthy!

Congratulations. Progress trumps perfection any day...so keep progressing!

Ringing bells and blowing whistles for you!

Thank you for a powerful and vulnerable post that I'm sure resonated with many of us. I admire your courage and dedication. Thanks for being such an inspiration.

Thank you for sharing your story and inspiring all of us!

So proud of your success and that you're doing this for the most important person in the world...you. Stay positive and keeping loving yourself with all your heart as well as taking care of yourself.

It is noticeable on your face and tummy. I imagine the part that is not as noticeable, how you feel on this inside, is even more rewarding. You are off to a great start. Keep it up. My next goal is to get under 200 as well. I have 18lbs to go. Can't wait to touch base with you when we both hit that goal

Thank you for the inspiration! You rock.

Congratulations. You are a wonderful example to your daughters on how to persevere and stick to your goal...100% mental but I'm sure 100% heart too. You are an inspiration!

Congratulations. You are now and inspiration to others! Keep up the good work.

Congratulations! You are such an inspiration.

So proud that you took the bullies on by focusing on yourself. The best revenge is always personal success. Without an unkind action or word towards anyone else you have won and are better for it. Not only that, you are now an inspiration for so many others. Way to go

Wonderful and thoughtful post. I will keep coming back to it for motivation and guidance as I re-start my journey...

I'm in. Starting on MFP once again. This time I plan to stick to it. Reading the motivational and success stories (never did that before) is so inspiring and helpful. If (when) I lose 1lb. a week I should be able to be down 10lbs. by Christmas.

I just signed in after being gone for over a year. Your story was just the inspiration I needed. Keep up the good work. You are a beautiful lady!

One of my family's favorite ways to eat cottage cheese is on a slice of toasted whole grain bread with thick slices of tomato (fresh from the garden) with freshly ground pepper.
