I can't believe it, I've actually made it to my last (remembered) high school weight of 137 lbs. That whole "six months from now you'll be thanking yourself for starting today" thing couldn't be more true. I'm really, trully actually here. Not goal yet but... Wow. I've never done this before. And finally, finally, I'm able to actually see and notice the weight loss difference. I didn't think I could do it most of the time but here I am! And feeling better than ever physically.

I'm excited to see where it goes from here. Still considered overweight for my height, but from here on every pound lost is a weight I've never seen myself at as an adult. As hard as this journey was, it was also easier than I thought thanks to everyone here. You all really taught me that it's lifestyle change over diet, and that I get to make the rules about my body and what works for me. So thank you.

I'll admit I'm sick of the comments about my weight, even if I know people are trying to be nice cause I hate the attention. I'm afraid of how many people are going to call me "too skinny" or anorexic or make mean comments, those have already started :/ There is just souch mental stuff that comes with this journey you don't expect. Hurts you didn't think could happen, things you didn't think people would say.

I've been taking pictures and am promising myself to reveal them at goal as a treat for me and a thank you to all of you!

Congratulations! Love your 6 month from now self will thank you. A great outlook and one I'm going to steal (thanks).

That's wonderful! Congrats!

I can't even imagine being high school weight! Good for you! That has obviously taken a ton of work.

Ignore the comments or take them as compliments if you can. Most people are trying to be nice, even if it comes across rudely. And a few are just jealous.

Wow.. high school was so long ago..(for me! can't remember what I weighed) well done! congrats that is certainly an achievement

Congrats! Truly inspirational and motivating post! Good luck on the rest of your journey

That's freaking awesome!!!

congrats!!! haters gonna hate but remember you are awesome and you decide what your goal is

Congratulations !! That's amazing! Don't worry about other people and what they think. This is for you, and you alone, this is your journey and you ARE worth it-(if I can steal the tag line) I don't think I'll get to my high school weight, but you know what?? One never knows! You are doing a great job, keep up the amazing work!!

That is spectacular! And you are right around the corner from your goal! I can't wait to see your goal pics!

Congratulations, that must feel like a wonderful accomplishment!
