Hey everyone, it has been an interesting and life altering 10 months, but I have finally hit the 100 lbs lost mark. I am over 15 lbs below my original goal, 5 pounds below my revised goal and now officially past my dream come true goal.

Now that I have hit the goal, I do still want to lose a bit more, but my body will decide when enough is enough, and if that was now I would be okay with that.

Keep up all your hard work everyone, there is no better feeling then seeing the results of all your hard work!

Congrats! Congrats! Congrats!!! I know it has to feel great! And I can't wait to join ya in the 100 lbs lost group!

Thanks guys I definitely have several NSV's...

Joined soccer again after not playing for 5 years due to my weight.

I fit into the dress I wore to Grade 8 graduation (when I was fairly thin)

I have done a 5k walk, when I couldn't even walk around the corner without having my feet kill me.

This is a weird one, but I had trouble finding comfortable shoes, I was a size 8 and sometimes had to go to 9 or 10 for the width. No I am a size 7 and shoes fit amazing!

I took anxiety medications before and could not ride public transit alone. Now I am medication free and have no problem taking a bus or a train.

But by far the biggest NSV I have had is being able to walk down the street and hold my head high, not worry what people think about me, and not being paranoid that everyone laughing is laughing at me. As I have shed the weight, I fell in love with myself again (let me be clear it wasn't only because the weight loss, it was because my mentality changed as well). It is the best feeling in the world to build yourself back up to feeling like you have worth. Every time I worked out, I would tell myself it is because I am worth it, and that is how I gained some confidence. I do still have moments where I am insecure, that will always be there, but the difference is astonishing.

As for extra skin - Yes, I do have extra skin on the boobs, stomach, butt and arms. But it isn't that bad, I will probably need surgery purely for cosmetic reasons, but not bothering until after I have kids. It isn't enough skin to cause any discomfort or hygiene issues.
