Hi Gracie and welcome.
Holy cow! 101 lbs....that is AWESOME!
I just happened to jump on and read your post first this morning and it made me feel....well, happy, I guess...because you sound just like I'm feeling. It is such a fabulous feeling, isn't it?
In 2005/2006, I got heavier than I'd ever been in my life (and I'm 57). I mean, I'd never been a thin person...but obese? It was a nightmare for me. I'm not to goal yet....but boy, the happiness of looking NORMAL again is just beyond description for me right now.
(TMI alert) One of my little private thrills is that my darn bikini underwear is no longer rolling-up under my stomach. There's no more stomach to roll-up under and it's staying in place, like it's supposed to. That used to just drive me nuts and was so uncomfortable.
Back in my younger days, I wasn't thrilled until I hit goal weight. But then, I'd never gotten as heavy as I did this time. This time...I am so beyond thrilled to just look normal again now....and the rest is gonna be icing on the cake for me. And the happiness in your post sounded just like I'm feeling now.
Can you give more info on how you did it? Are you using any particular program? I'm using Atkins.
Way to go! You're doing a fantastic job.
