I know a lot of people (myself included) who ignore it. Maybe because they're busy or they're trying to avoid a painful subject. It’s good that you are so in touch with your body.

I was in the 200's for most of high school and early college. Near the end of college I got above 300, but was only in that range for maybe 4 years. It's hard to know for sure because I didn't weigh myself often. Melissa – I was fat from about 4th or 5th grade on up. I was in the 200′s for most of high school and early college.

Or were you always big from childhood? When you said you didn’t weight 300 some odd pounds for over a decade, did that mean you more of a normal weight an then got bigger?

And once again you have used analogies beautifully. Great post–I am so happy for you that your self-image has kept up with your loss. And once again you have used analogies beautifully.

I was a bit slack this last week and I was being self destructive, to the point of where I was asking myself why am I bothering with the weight loss. I KNOW how to get where you are too... I just have to keep reminding myself so I won't lose the way. You inspired me so much, I got off of my fat bum and went to the gym after procrastinating for more than a week. Thank YOU so very much!

I have been size 6 petite ( 5'0" 115 lbs) for more than a year now (2 yrs ago 190--and 14 years ago 271), and I still gaze at every reflective surface available. I choose to dress in fitted clothing that covers and flatters my body. I also accept and respect my body's "defects". Yes, I have some loose skin, stretch marks and wrinkles from aging, but while I know my body is not perfect, it has taken good care of me all through my life, and I am very happy with its current Excellence.

If anyone deserves to feel beautiful, it's you. After all this hard work, you deserve to be proud of yourself and how you look. You've EARNED the right to check yourself out. One of these days I'm going to be right there with you, drooling over my hot body. (Well, not that YOU'd be drooling over my body; you can drool over your own.) Since I'm totally "with the times," I give you a big YOU GO GIRL for being so awesome and having such an awesome attitude.
