"FINALLY 100 lbs lost forever"

I've never lost this much before in my life ! I feel so much better then what I did! I'm getting my life back. I am a lot happier then what I was. I'm starting to take pictures again . I could tell you the last time I enjoyed taking my picture because now every picture I take is going to look better and better every time I take one cause I will look back and see what I have accomplished ! I've got a ways to go but I can tell you this I've already got my life back because I didn't want the wait to beat me and it was about there and I took by the throat and I said NO MORE I'm sick I've you controlling me! I'm tired of setting back and watching my life go by and not enjoying it! There's many battle's I have to face but one for instant is my mother has spiral staircase and it had gotten to the point when that when I went to visit I wouldn't go down them because they hurt my legs so bad! I went and spent the day with her last week I went up and down them at least 8 times! Yes my legs were sore but I did it ! Its the little goals ! I can't fit in dr. office chairs! Like I said I've still have a ways to go but now I have a handle on it ! Thank you jesus!

Congratulations, Im currently sitll completing my Dr. Visits. It has been a long process for me. But I am 38 years old and have not lived in 13 years, I know exactly what you mean when you stated life is passing you by. I cant wait to I get approved so that I can have a life. I just feel my life is not what i should be, I want to be happy and enjoy life with my 13 year old. And feel beautiful again. Im currently 5'2 and 268 pounds, and looking forward to not complaining about my feet or blood pressure. I take full blame for my situation now, but like you I'm tired of feeling sorry for myself and working on doing something about it. It was very inspiring reading you post.

Hurray! you can do this. You are the one in control and you will be making the strides you need to live! Good luck. Karen

Congratulations on the loss, Mandy! I hadn't thought about this in a while, but your post reminded me that I realized I needed to do something about my weight when I sat down in a chair at the dentist, and when I got up, the chair came with me. NOT a good feeling.

That's incredible! Congratulations!

Congratulations on your 100lbs loss! I, too, have just recently added that "jewel" to my crown. :DIt took me nearly 23 months to do it and I still have 40 more pounds to go, but it has been an awesome journey!

Congratulations that is awesome!
