I did the exact thing with looking for other people who were near my weight or had over 200 lbs to lose. It just made me feel a little less alone and also really inspired as you said. I love what you say about the journey being worth it and not being ashamed of where you come from. You are looking and doing great. Thanks for sharing your story with us.
Thank you for YOUR support! I love your videos and I so identify with you. At the beginning of the journey I just wanted to finish, now I see the journey is part of the process.
hi Angela, I want to start by congratulating you for your courageous break-through. Right now that is my biggest hangup as well. Not sure why because this community is so full of love & support - but for some reason I still feel so guarded. (hence the fact I still haven't even posted an introductory video) :o/
At any rate you look amazing & I am so happy for you & all of your progress.
(I have a question I've been meaning to ask since I started watching your videos - what is that on the wall)
It took me SO LONG to post my first video, but I had a very warm welcome and acceptance right away. You will do it in your time. It took me 9 months to reveal it. That's what is great about these people, they supported me all along!
Good for you on being accountable and putting the weight out there. What I've found is our fellow YT'ers are not judgemental at all about the # you start with but more about the # you've worked so hard to lose :) You're looking great and that's a great color on you!
i am so with you on the "lookinh for people who were heavier" i tend to do the same thing as i am in the "400 club" myself... but you look amazing!!! keep up the good work!
Thanks! I tend to avoid drama like the plague, but what this man has done long-term to so many people is just mind boggling. Hopefully he will have consequences for his actions and maybe think twice before doing this to someone else.
Thanks for the compliment! I am getting stronger and more confident every day. I have a lot of YouTubers to thank for all their support!! **hugs* (Oh, green likes me, but I am not a big fan of green unfortunately ..lol)
You have made excellent strides, thanks for Sharing and putting it all out there!

I am glad you "came out". I think the secret to the success of this support system is finding those you can identify with.

Yes, and even the "smaller" ones have been inspirations to me. This community is a wealth of information and love!

I know they wouldn't be judgmental, it was just the shame I felt inside for even allowing myself to get like that. Thank you for your comment!
