6 months after the start of my overhaul
Well its been 6 months and I am down from 340 to 260. I thought I would be down more but the thyroid is making things difficult and frustrating. I have started college and walking ..still with pain where before what I have lost made it impossible to walk without severe pain. Still working on my arms legs and stomach. I have loose skin under chin that is a must go and drives me crazy.

You're doing so well, it must be frustrating to have the thyroid problem but seventy pounds is one hell of a loss! You look so different!
