I Did It :)
 

So for most of my life, I've been obese. And let's not kid ourselves, morbidly obese. I was tired: physically, emotionally. I was unhappy with my appearance and hated being fat.
So this January I started my weight loss journey at 256.4 pounds, a size 24, and 'women's' size shirts.

Today I weighed in 145 pounds. I reached my goal! :carrot:

Now I'm a size 12, and can wear most things off the rack. Yay!

Holy Cow !!!! Good for you. Have fun shopping

Yay! Congrats! How did you finally do it?

6 small meals a day. I kept under a carb limit and now at the end of this week I'm going to start adding more foods back in slowly.

You lost a PERSON.

Congratulations! Be proud!

Congrats! :carrot:

WOW! That's great!!

Congratulations! So happy for you :)

This is so wonderful! What was your carb count per day? Give us sample menus.

You should be so proud!

:celebrate::cheer::celebrate:

That's an amazing amount of weight!! Good luck in your next phase of maintenance!

What a fantastic accomplishment. :bravo:

Every time I hear that, I'm both ashamed and proud of myself.

Ashamed that I weighed so much that I lost enough to lose a person, and proud that I stuck with it to LOSE that person!

Wow, just WOW !!

Congrats

Yay! Awesome!!!:carrot:

Yay! I love it when I see people accomplish their goals! Can't wait to hear all your maintenance success stories.

Congrats!! That is amazing and super happy for you. I weighed 258 in august 2016 and now 215lbs and can't wait to reach my goal. You are an inspiration. Super happy for you.

Wow, that's incredible!! Congratulations!!

Wow! You killed it! Congrats 🎈🎉

wow you must feel so much better!!!

How did you do it? I need to get back on track and fail every time I restart.

Congrats !

You are such an inspiration! wow!! please post details of how you did it!!.. I'm sure we will all be grateful.

Congratulations!

A real inspiration! Great job. I hope to be able to post the same one day!

Congratulations diet cherry coke That is awesome! :cheer2::cheer2::cheer3::cheer3::congrat:

Great job. What an amazing accomplishment!

do you think it is possible to lose so much weight without getting a personal trainer or going to the gym?

Congrats!!!!!

Yes. I lost over a 100 pounds without stepping foot in a gym or spending a penny on a personal trainer.
I walked and dieted myself.

Congrats, such an inspiration to all. You must feel and look so much better.

my congratulations! I want to lose at least 20 pounds, hope my goal will come true in the next few months

Congrats. But don't you think that adding the foods that made you fat back in will start the weight gain again? I would watch that if I were you.

Congrats!

Exersise is very good for you, but it has nothing to do with weight loss. It actually makes you very hungry. I avoid it.

Congrats! you must be our new wonder woman :)

4 thumbs up!

Wow! how incredibly rude.

I wouldn't worry about that comment. The goal everyone strives for is balance. Not having chocolate cake the rest of your life is not really realistic. The goal is to balance it with the fruits and veggies that give your body fuel. Congrats on your huge accomplishment. That commentor also says exercise makes you hungry and to avoid it. Which it does but it also speeds up your metabolism. If you can combine that with nutrient dense low cal foods that we were meant to eat I don't foresee a problem. Be proud of yourself!
