Hear hear! This is something most of us tend to forget - there is always someone who is worse off than you. Stay positive! Eventually we will all reach our goals.

Thanks. You are absolutely correct. There is someone out there who would like to be or is striving to be my size.

I always think of this when I start getting negative about my body. Some people would love to be where I'm at, so I should be thankful I'm starting with a smaller weight loss (about 25 lbs), instead of a larger one

Thank you I needed the reminder of how far I've come.... to remember that this is a journey and that we all started at different distances from our goals.
