Thank you. I know people don't mean anything by it. Guess I'm just not used to the concept of having to stop losing lol

I felt the same way. If I'd have known just losing weight would fix 90% of my health problems I would have done it years ago. No more meds, my anxiety and depression are better, no more blood pressure or cholesterol meds, I'm off everything. I wasted a lot of years I wish I could get back with my kids. But my future grandkids are gonna have an active, fit, granny.

Just recently had a patient come into the Dr office I work at. I hadn't seen in over a year. She also took care of my grandmother for years. I checked her in and she was acting weird. She then asked where I was. I had to point at myself. She was shocked and amazed. Now that made me feel great.

Awesome. I hope I reach my goal by the spring. Just 40 to go. Was the last bit harder to lose. I've slowed down a bit now.

Great work. I'm down 105 and was at a party recently where I ran into someone I have known for 20 years but hadn't seen in a year. She introduced herself to me - I reminded her of who I was. She was so embarrassed, she excused herself to get another drink.

Sounds great to me,I can't wait,I'm in hopes to lose 17 more pounds to get the surgery, I don't no how long it takes after I lose the 17 pounds,before they do the surgery,but I no i need it for health reasons to,I'm tired of all the meds,high blood pressure,anxiety,bones hurt bad knees,all bad back,I can't even take shower without getting out of breath,its bad I can't exercise,due to my hip that needs replaced, and my knee also,and back,n neck,I feel broken,I have no energy at all,I can't even play with my grandkids.

Congrats on 114 down. Fantastic work.
It's weird to hear people to tell you to stop losing weight ...right? It's hard enough for you to wrap your head around your physical appearance. I think you can understand when people around you struggle with it. Smile and reassure them you are still at a healthy weight/bmi even at your goal.

I have had a lot of Hair loss. I am not balding, but I had a lot of hair to begin with. I have lost about 50% of my hair volume, and was very worried for a while. But while I started losing hair at 4.5 months, it stopped falling out rapidly by 6 months. Now it seems like just normal hair loss, and I am not freaked out.
