And you look soooo happy. Congrats.

Beautiful, beautiful, and inspiring to boot.

Skip the story about the 20 pounds. What I read was that you were caught up in a lifestyle that put home last after your 7-7 out in the world and that you were depressed about work and "food cheers me up." Depression is contagious. When you are down, that black cloud comes into the house. Then you say you don't feel like…

To rinse out your liver, eat a bar of Ivory soap. That's 158 grams of fat and a little sodium but I can't find the calorie count. Anyone know? Oh, and drink a whole lot of water. And eat a sea sponge for protein.

You look so happy. Looking in the mirror and being honest about ourselves- at the high weight and at the low- would be so very helpful. Several years ago I did lose to the correct range for my weight but I still shopped the big sizes. This way of life is all about acceptance and honesty. Great job you are doing.

The first thing: It's just a thought. I spent days sitting on a pillow at a Buddhist retreat, sitting doing nothing, which was damn near impossible for me and the lesson I learned after all that time was, "It's jut a thought. Let it go." The second thing: For ten minutes. Five. One at a time. And then do it again. It's…

There's my motivation for the morning. Excellent work!

Three cups is not a binge. If I eat one slice of bread a day extra I will gain ten pounds in a year. (100 x 365)= 36500 or ten more pounds of me. If I eat 365 slices of bread in a day I will - well, can't imagine what. Explode? Expel it from the top or bottom? Wear out? The body just can't possibly absorb fifteen loaves of…

GREAT effort. I celebrate every pound, and envy you your success. I'm right behind ya!

Surely you are kidding. There are a zillion places where one learns how to eat a balanced diet. If you have missed them thus far you are not paying attention, and if you are not paying attention there is a reason for your unwillingness to change. Change anything. One move for the better is a start. It becomes a habit after…

One day at a time and you've accomplishe something spectacular. Keep it up!

You look so proud and you should. Good job.

You did the work and you got the payoff. You must feel great. Good job.

Perseverance works. Congrats and thanks for posting. The inspiration helps me stick to the plan.

You're MY motivation today. My goal is to get to where I won't gain or lose anything, to where I can feel comfortable with my body and with my choices. Sometimes it's hard to do the right thing when there isn't the payoff we want. I've been doing the logging and the reporting, and finally have started to exercise, and in a…

I do not think that you can eat enough for someone to give you a job, so it's keep on keeping on because you will work again before you die. I use an elliptical trainer for my knees since I've broken the thing a few times. With that machine you can be in a cast and still move the leg. It's zero impact but great cardio. I…

Sometimes fear of success is about fear of change, sometimes it is about my definition of myself ( I am such a loser, I am stupid, I can never do anything right) and sometimes it is about fear of the What If. What if i lose the weight and don't look great (those thighs are not just fat, some of that shape is DNA) or if I…
