Oh My Goodness Jenn!

I almost cried reading this.  I am so happy for you.  You've worked so hard.  You look wonderful.  I started at 390 and am now 343.6.  You are my inspiration.  I'm not even joking.  I haven't met anyone yet that was my size and has done such an amazing job.  Thank you so very much for this post.  You've encouraged me like no one else!

Have a Great Weekend!
God Bless you!

I was just like you, always looking for people who started at or near where I did.  It really helps to see that weight loss is possible even when you are a heavyweight. 

Those pounds are going to fly off of you like you won't believe.  One of the hardest parts about being so heavy for me was that it was hard for others to see the weight I had lost until I had lost more than 100 pounds.  Even though I felt like I had really come a long way (I had), it hurt when people didn't see my loss.  Please don't get discouraged if this happens to you.  Just know that you are going to do great!! 

Please feel free to contact me if you ever need any support or just need to talk.

You  might not know who you are yet, but you're going to have one hell of a time finding out!  I have to say that I'm most impressed with your tan.....just look at the before and afters.  Perfect!  LOL
As always, great job, Jenn!

Brenda,

Thanks for noticing my tan, lol!  I really hadn't realized how dark I was until I saw these pictures.  I think I need to stay out of the sun for a while.

I can't wait to find out who I am.  I'm just taking it one day at a time.

Jen,
I don't post often, but lurk daily.  You have done such an amazing job and you inspire me!!  When I read your post, it was like reading what has been going on in my head almost daily.  People are complimenting me and I keep thinking "what, I don't see the difference."  Then I try on something or catch a glimpse of myself realize that I am smaller.  
Maybe we can all get to know that person who is lurking inside us...
