Way to go! I love that you have broken your goals down. You look beautiful.

Thanks very much for sharing your story. You sound like a very kind and sweet person. I am so glad you found something that works for you and that you want to help others. All the best!

Yeah! Thank you so much for sharing your story. It really helps me to hear that you lost 1.5lbs per week. Sometimes when I hear about people losing these huge amounts of weight in short amount of time, I feel like I am not working hard enough or doing something wrong. Over and over again I see on MFP that the people that…

Amazing. You guys look great. Congratulations!

Congratulations! I greatly admire that you have strong beliefs but recognize that we are different.

great work! You will get there in no time..... one day at a time :smiley:

What a great story. Thanks so much for sharing!!! I got rid of most of my "skinny" clothes but did keep a pair of goal jeans. You have inspired me!

Wow....cinnabon is the worst. You have amazing strength. Congratulations. That stuff smells so good. The only thing that saves me is I get really sick if I eat gluten. I know what you mean about the sugar. I am an addict too. I think actually saying that helps. I now really avoid sugar or simple carb - both send me into a…

Wow, what a tranformation! You look great!

Congratulations! Please post before and after pics. Love to see your success!

Lots of good advice on here already. I agree - sounds like this is coming from a person who is afraid and jealous. I guess you have two choices 1)be angry with her -which will driver you further apart and move on or 2) understand where she is coming from - so help her to feel better about herself and more secure in the…

Thanks for sharing. I love progress stories. The dog is not disappointed in you. He just loves you and wants you to feel better about yourself..... and maybe take him for more walks! You look great!

Congratulations on your success! My sister has a gastric sleeve. She started at over 300lbs and lost 100lbs fairly quickly. She didn't change really anything else so she has stayed around 200lbs for some time now. Some people have really criticized for getting the sleeve in the first place and for not really trying…

What do you mean not much difference??? One thing I have really noticed on MFP is overweight people are sooooo hard on themselves...,myself included. Even your bellybutton and your hands look different. Be a good friend to yourself and give yourself a big hug, for a great accomplishment.

Congratulations! that is great progress.

Thank you for sharing your story and congratulations on your success. It is hard to lose weight as we age and have other health issues. I would have been easy for you to resign yourself to being a little overweight, because you have some decent excuses, but you didn't . I think that is really great and very inspiring!

I agree with both.... get a good seamstress and absolutely buy a new dress...or a few new dresses!!!!

Well you put the fear of open heart surgery in me. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing success and courage. You look amazing, yes because of the weight loss but also because you look very happy. Great to see.

WOW! That's amazing. Squats are awesome. Nice to see hear about fitness goals. It's not all about weight loss. My goal is to do one unassisted chin up, which will be much easier when I lose 70lbs.

What you have done takes a lot of courage. Congratulations!
-
WOW! You look like a different person. I am sure you feel like it too. Thanks for the inspiring story. Goes to show that logging in is key and being perfect is not. Congratulations!
-
Great inspiring story. Thanks very much! I LOVE all your photos, especially the one with you getting the check. You look so happy. Congratulations!!!
-
Great work. Also great to focus on measurements rather than weight when you are so close to ideal size.
-
Wear your stretch marks and loose skin as a badge of honour for your amazing achievement. Proof of the your incredible journey!
-
I also agree with many others..... you look like you lost more than 49 lbs. You look like a different person. From you name I am guessing that you got really fit doing crossfit as well. Sure shows. Congratulations. Very inspiring!
-
Going for the surgery takes a lot of courage. You look amazing and I am so happy that you are getting out there and enjoying life.

Great results in just 6 weeks. Your hard work is really paying off!

Thank you for sharing. Your story is very inspiring. You look so happy in your "after" pictures.
