Title: Over 80 Pounds Lost!
Post by: mouseissue on August 16, 2012, 10:37:40 AM
Well I finally caught up with Scott who lost 80 pounds in 52 weeks and made his goal last August.

It's taken me a bit over 2 years to lose the same amount. But the journey has been so worth it.
My health is so much better, I can hardly believe how great I feel! :) :) :)

Turtles Rule!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D

Thanks, Scott!... You're doing good, too! :) :) :)

The ONLY way to win the lifelong weight loss (http://www.fattoskinny.com/) war, is with a lifestyle change.

With FTS , I've been able to watch the scale, slowly but surely, move in the right direction.
And I know that when it reads what it should, I can maintain it without stress.

I'm with you Betty.  My goal of losing 50 pounds seems so overwhelming, but seeing how many wonderful people here have lost that and much more does make it seem a bit more realistic.

Way to go, Tony!!!

The thing I like about your story, Tony, is that it took you a long time, but you persevered.  So many people here have reported losing 30 or 40 pounds in 3 months.  This is a lifestyle change, and not a diet, the fact that you stuck with it and reached your goal is what is truly inspirational to me.

Thank you, mdanziger! :) :) :)

Perseverance is key to success in any endeavor.
It comes from unconditional commitment.

If you maintain your commitment to being a healthy and happy person, you WILL be just that!

Life is what we make it... So, why not make it the best life possible? ;)
