WOW!!! Well done on your weight loss! You look great and you have one hell of an amazing face to boot! Your parents better keep a close eye on you in case someone tries to whisk you away! :auto:
 
OMG!!!!!! I dont mean to be rude but in your first picture you looked like 35 years old!!! But look at you now!!! wow, I'm just flipping with your change, you look amazing, very cute and nice. Congratulations for the effort and the results!!
 
Awww, thanks again everyone for the really nice and sweet responses. I wished I could keep you guys all posted with new photos, but I havent had a camera in forever!

You really do look great. There had to have been so much change mentally to go through what you did. Was it mostly diet? How often did you exercise? What do people at your school say about your huge weight loss?
 
babez u r an inspiration to many ov us!!

i started wid 240 lbs and now am 176 ...but you know, am all da tyme scared when I mite give up cos thats what I ve done earlier many many times....how to keep oneself motivated?? if u can tell..

and a big muackzzz to you for posting..cos looking at u motivates!
 
So glad you are updating with even more pictures.. your story is absolutely amazing, I could look at your before and afters forever! You've taken at least 20 years off your visual and no doubt physical age.

Beautiful, both inside AND out it seems. You are going to inspire hundreds, maybe even thousands of people. You should be so proud. Best of all, you've got a long, healthy life ahead of you now.

Congratulations girly! :)
 
*high five* Way to go! I know all to well about the loose skin. But as you know clothes can hide that it can't hide fat. The pants pic made me giggle because I have a pair I can do that with too.

On the loose skin front depending on insurance and your doctor you can sometimes get it's removal paid for if your primary deems it a health hazard like it flops over and causes yeast infections/irritation where it rubs. If yours is doing that you maybe in luck.

You look amazing :) Keep up the awesome job makes me smile when ever you update.

-- Well, I can't really choose what was more. I did alter my eating habits drastically. But, I also began to get up and move around way more than I used too. I can say it's not one or the other, it's both working together! I exercised when I could. Normally about a half hour at curves. And I walked a few miles a day. when I was starting out though. I went full trottle. I was on my bike, i was running around outside with my nephew. I was doing exercises in bed. I was dancing around in private. I even chopped out every single item of BAD food. Cold turkey. NO BAD FOOD! MY health was more important that that few minutes of taste! IT's not easy, but OMG It's sooooo worth it! Um, well, most of the time when I was in school. It would take a few weeks of me talking to them before they realised who I was.... In my school it seemed everyone only remembers what you looked like from the beginning of the year before... Because I lost over 100lbs while in school. then summer break came, and i lost another 30.. But when I came back to school the next year NO ONE knew who I was... And I'm serious. It's Reallllllyyyy realllllllyyy annoying but satisfying to be face to face to people you used to talk to, and they have no idea who you are. I get nervious when I see someone i used to know. Because last time I did that I was talking to them for about 10 minutes at the bank, asking them how everyone was...and questions about their lives that some random person wouldnt know about... and they just looked at me funny and answered my questions like I was a freak... Then finally they go/ " do i know you? " and then I tell them and then you freak out! They are like OMG! WOW! YOU LOOK SO DIFFERENT!... I mean I guess it's just weird to me, because Even after all my weightloss, I still feel like the same person, and so I feel i look the same too... And I just dont understand at times because i didnt think i could look that much different...

And I hate the kids I used to know that when they find out who i am the first thing is. " YOU HAD TO HAVE SURGERY! " Now, I'm not saying surgery is the easy way out, cause It would SUCK to have it. But, I do enjoy people knowing that NO, I didnt have surgery, I just killed myself! lol

But, all in all, if I were to go back to school, I could probably begin as a completely new kid that no one knows that they know who i am. crazy!
