Wow, you are beautiful! Congratulations on getting this far in your journey.

Congratulations

Congratulations, you look great!

Thanks

That's awesome!

Scale goes without saying around here HAHA. Hate to say it, but a microwave is probably at the top, with my George Foreman a VERY close second. Third would be a pressure cooker even though its not an appliance. Fourth would be my vaccum sealer. Funny thing is my microwave died this evening and I am on the hunt. Going to…

I am very proud to call you my friend on here, and even more proud of you for what you have accomplished. Awesome man, just awesome.

Love it

Thanks for all the input everyone. I was at Walmart today and they had a Golds gym version for very little money. Just went ahead and got it to try out and see if I like this style exercise or not. Cheap and easy way for me to find out, and I'm out less than $20 if I hate it so its worth it to me.

I have lifted quite a bit. The loss has come in the last couple months since it has been to cold in the building. I have retained the biggest part of my strenght. Im looking to see if trx style can help me from now till I can get back to normal weights. Stronglifts is the main thing I was doing. Classes are unfourtunatly…

I can assure you the commitment to use it is there, I'm just trying to gather information and decide a route to go. Gyms and such are out of the question, and the limited weights I have are unusable until warmer weather. They have to be in an outbuilding and there is no heat in it. I'm looking for something I can use in…

I have had my diary open since the day I started. Any one is always welcome to be friends with me. I don't always post a lot to the wall, but I'm here everyday and try to comment on some and like most posts for a little encouragement so you know your not alone.

After losing around 100 my Dr. said they would cut my dose in 1/2, which was monitored closely. It was to be cut in 1/2 again after 3 months. At that 3 month appt. the Dr. said to stop taking them as they were no longer need but to continue tracking for awhile with permission to restart if needed. So far it's not been…

I have arthritis in my right knee. At one point it was painful just doing daily stuff. Walking up steps one legged, (side stepping) and all that good stuff just to get by. Dr. told me that it was severe enough that I could look forward to very early knee replacement surgery, and not really anything I could do to avoid it.…

YES!! Exercising and losing weight has helped me immensely. I still have bad spells, but I have been able to get off of the 2 meds I hated taking worse than anything, both for anxiety and panic attacks.

Absolutely love my George Foreman with removable accessory plates. It gets used 2-3 times a week on average.

It's your love, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill. My wife and I have lots of memories to this song. TMI I know.

I have lost all my weight so far while taking Citalopram. Although I am weaning off of it now.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. It does feel great to know how far I have come, but humbled by what is left. I'm sure maintenance is hard, but I'm getting a little closer to looking forward to it :smile: MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Now, to move on to the next goal. 200, then on to a "healthy" BMI before I try to gain some muscle back. Not lost a huge amount, but enough that I will do a "bulk" if I can get to 180-185. Its a journey for sure.

Thanks!

Anyone feel free to add me. Log Daily.

WOW, you are beautiful! Congratulations

Wendy's chili is kind of my go to, second is the turkey burger at Hardees without mayo.

I love Corn Flakes, and if I'm craving sweets, it's frosted flakes to the rescue. I am weird though, because cereal is not a breakfast food for me, it's a late evening snack.:)

Gorgeous!

I tip my hat to you, and I'm glad to call you my friend. I'm at 111 lbs lost so far, and understand the journey. Congrats, and wishing you continued success. Let us know what the Dr's reaction is, and how the labs go.

That's awesome!

Thought if I can get this to work I would add a earlier picture from several years ago and a current one. Hope it works. Edit: Got it after 3 tries, LOL.

Thanks everyone. It has been a ride for sure, but worth it.
