You look amazing!! Your story is inspiring for me... Today is my 2 year sleeversary! My HW was 266 SW 232 today I weigh 157. I still would like to loose another 10-15 pounds but I am happy where I am if I don't loose anymore. I went from a size 18-20 to 6 and 8's depending on the style. I still have a round tummy and I'm not sure how to help that. I have had 6 back surgeries and to strengthen my core is hard because of my restrictions. This saddens me because I have family members that still call me tubby. I guess things don't change for some. So, when I look in the mirror I still see that girl I was before when my mid section remains so round. Any suggestions what to do to help this problem... I still make sure I get my Protein in everyday and I drink Water like there is no tomorrow and I also follow everything the nutritional stuff instructed me to do. I know I can't change the options of my family but how do I change my negative opinion of myself when they call me tubby? Just venting on my 2 yr celebration.
