Huge difference!! Anyone who tells you they don't see it are just trying to bust your a@@.... Congrats !

Very beautiful!! Amazing transformation. Love your words of wisdom.... "be kind to yourself on this journey" I will always remember that now. Thank You. :)

Congrats on all your hard work paying off! :)

Feel free to add me, too . And anyone else also. I have been here for a while. I had a good run of logging and then one day of lapse and I lost it and sadly I lost my gusto to get rid of this fat on my body. I've lost 76 lbs and staled greatly. My own fault. I hate to exercise . I hate it. Can't lie about it. So now I'm up…

You are gorgeous! Congrats on your success and many more successes in all your years ahead!

Congrats for taking the very first step! I , too started at 300 lbs.. I've been doing this for so long and there are ups and downs and fails and triumphs! Follow your heart. Do what works for you. What works for some maybe won't work for you. Don't get discouraged. Don't try to beat your friend. Just be you. I've lost 76…

You look amazing! Great transformation! I started at 300 lbs and have lost 76 lbs ... and I don't see one bit of difference... wish I could see on me what I see on you! Nice job and congrats!

I agree.. I didn't think it was you! You look fantastic! Nicely done!

Wishing you all the best!

Thanks for posting this so I don't feel like a complete loser when I have a treat every so often.. ! I have forgotten that I am human and can enjoy foods, too!

Beautiful! You look amazing. Did you hit any plateaus? Anything you can help with for advice? I've lost 76 lbs and I can not move the scale! Thanks in advance!

All I wanted to do was be healthy at first, but as the weight has been coming off so many more things come to mind that I want. Losing 76lbs I've been able to do the small things.. cross my legs again, cut my toenails and be able to breath and I've gone down 8 sizes! But Now I want more and more... maybe do a "walking"…

Its ok to vent it out.. I did the same today. I've lost 76 lbs eating 1200 cals a day. I've been at this now since Dec. with no drop in wght. So today, I ate pretty much what I wanted. Food was good, sweets were off the charts for me. I didn't beat myself up. I never do it. I just gave myself the permission to do it first.…

I am or went through this with my husband. We both started this together and since, I've continued and he has not. I've lost 76 lbs. He lost 55 and gained it back. He always told me he just loves big women.... well I was big to the tune of 300 lbs! Thats not big , thats whale! But he insisted. Now being a size 18, yes…

Is this a trick question? LOL Here is the anwser... hand to food, food to mouth... I take all the blame for my fatness..I have to , no one else fed me. :smiley:

So sorry for your loss... You are a very strong man! What a beautiful gift for your wife and your future. Fantastic job!!!

Fantastic! Wtg!!! I can't wait to get there...! The best! :)

Great question.. ! So, when I used to sit, my butt didn't hurt and now it does! My calves... hubs said they were smaller the other day! Climbing ladder at work..afraid of what others would say never mind the fear of an obese women falling. Now I can climb and I actaully am not afraid. Clipping my toe nails while breathing!…

Hi there. I'm 51 and been doing this for well over a year. I've lost to date 76 lbs eating 1200 to 1500 cals a day. I'm trying to step up my plan now so I can drop more. I don't really have a goal, just to be healthier than I was. Its a slow process, but I'm deteremined to get there. BTW I started @ 300 lbs/ now 224 . I've…

Hi ! I'm in Ma also.. have lost 76lb so far and on my way to more! You can add if you like. And anyone else from Ma also.

Amazing! Congrats! I only wish I had your outlook! I've lost almost 80lb to date and can not see the difference in my body. You have such a great attitude on life. WTG on all you've accomplished!

I have to have some sort of chocolate maybe every other day. I found a great bar at Trader Joe's. No sugar in this bar at all! Its a very dark chocolate so it really does the trick!

Oh Your mama needs some new glasses! Sheesh... Honey, I'm fat.. You are not. Nuff said.

I have Hashimoto's Thyroid, also. I have taken every medcation out there for under active thyroid. Just came off of my second pill of the day *yes, I was taking two different meds twice a day*. Now down to one a day. I've recently lost 76lbs with no problems and now I'm at a stall. Doc says to alternate exercises to rev up…

I'm from Mass....and I would say the same thing as Shella123/ log everything you put in your mouth. Once you stop you lose focus.. or I lose focus!

Great JOb!!! WTG you look great and awesome progress for a short amount of time! WTG

Merry Christmas ! I hope you all had a wonderful day or if its just started it will be! We celebrated the night away last night and continued this morning. I was able to watch my grandchildren open their gifts from Santa. So fun! Just what I needed. On the food front.. well, the ham and potato's won me over. I made a vow I…

Good Morning! Thanks for all the kind words and encouragements! I love seeing all the pics of the pups here, too. I have a mini dash, her name is Shoshonee, 10 lbs and thinks she is all that. I will have to get a pic up of her soon. Started the morning off right with a heafty breakfast. And today will be no taking that…

Thank You so much, Joyce! I will go and do this. I really needed a place to come to and just share/ vent and support. Thanks for the welcome! Looking forward to sharing and hearing about everyone! Rosie

Hello all! So I believe I joined this group a while ago and for some reason could never find it? Maybe I was looking in the wrong places! Not sure. But If you are in support of one more 'over 50' overweight women, I'd love to join in? Let me know. Here is some back ground and If I ramble, just tune me out! My name is Rose…
