I would like to that every one on the forum who have been supportive in helping me to achieve my weight loss goals. The road has been rough but I am extremely happy for the struggle!

You look awesome! Today is my one year anniversary and I'm on my way to the Dr to take my after pics! I'm soooo excited to be another one of his success stories and I'm hoping he puts me on the board in his office! I'm down from a size 20 to a size 10. From a 3x to a medium. Shoe size from an 11 to a 10! Thank you Jesus!!!!

Thank you. Its a whole new world and I'm a whole new girl

Good luck with the start of your journey. I'm 44 and have lost a total of 117 lbs with only 8lbs left to go. I'm just one week past being 10 months out. Although I haven't lost it as quickly as the younger people I have been at a steady pace. I have very little lose skin. I assume because the weight has come off comparedly slow which gives my skin time to tighten plus I lift weight which helps....but you'll do fine! Good luck! Sent from my Nexus S 4G using RNYTalk

Exactly. I'm happy with myself now...why can't other people be happy that I'm no longer self loathing? 117 lbs ago life was very different. I don't miss the food. I just want my friends back! Sent from my Nexus S 4G using RNYTalk

Thank you for your kind words... I ask all to pray for me as this has been a very rough time for me. I have been very depressed. I have a hx of bipolar' date=' major depression and high anxiety. I am not on any medications at this time due to exercise prayer and meditation. Every time I work out its like taking an antidepressant due to the release of endorphins. The up side yo this is that my new found confidence has made it easier for me to go out into the world and meet people [ATTACH']2249[/ATTACH] Sent from my Nexus S 4G using RNYTalk
