[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's great OP!  Hope your post inspire more people to take action.  I saw several posts a while back which eventually gave me the drive to lose weight.

I'm curious, what made you decide to finally do something?[/quote]

Op here- Thank you so much and I’m sorry everyone for all the typos! I was crying as I was typing because a year ago I never thought this would be possible.

I wish I could say a type 2 diabetes diagnosis (6 years ago) or my 205/148 blood pressure, stage 3 hypertension (3 years ago) inspired me to change. But even after those health issues, I kept on eating the food. What finally made me change was not fitting into an airplane seat. The seat belt still fit (thankfully) but I didn’t want to be in anyone’s space so I tried to make myself so much the entire flight. For 17 hours. I love to travel and finally I was too big to do what I loved the most. It took me a couple more trips with uncomfortable flights to make the changes I needed. I always say that travel saved me :-)

[b]I’m now off the blood pressure and diabetes medication. That happened last week at my annual physical- another huge milestone.[/b] [/quote]

That is great OP!  It is amazing how diet and and exercise can really help us in reversing medical issues.  Keep up the good work, I hope you are taking weekly pictures?  You will feel even more amazing once you get to your target weight, kudos to you![/quote]
