You are much nicer than me. They are pea-green jealous assholes with poor upbringing!

Congratulations Stokie, you look great!
In that top left pic you almost look like you’re trying to hide behind the phone, afraid to take the picture. I understand!
I’m with @Tmdlkwd - may be time for a new cycling jersey.

Who are these animals you’re surrounded by?! I’ve never even HEARD of adults making such rude comments! Either way, pretty much impossible that they can’t see the change in you as it’s stunning. I assume they’re trying to be funny or cute, and are – indeed – ultimately jealous of what they’re assuming is willpower. Distance yourself from them – ASAP!

You’ve always been an inspiration to me. Not only have you handled the physical stuff but the mental stuff too, with a level head and self love.
As for mean people, they have to live with themselves. You, on the other hand, get to live in your transformed self and that’s a gift. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing, Carolyn!

Congrats!!!
I’ve not been so inspired to consider (?) posting before and after pictures (while also continuing the journey) and to share more of my story than I am right now.
Thank you for sharing your 1 year goal accomplishment!

Welcome to the forum @SDOC (I got a message that this is your first post).
Carolyn is certainly a great inspiration to us all; she is spot on saying about the support here being amazing, I agree.
This forum is a major asset to me in my goals atm too, really great bunch of people.

Huge CONGRATULATIONS on a tremendous milestone!!
Well done and thank you for sharing about the slower progress. My goal is similar and after 6 months I’m only 1/3 the way there. But this is a lifestyle that’s working and I’m not going back, so the weight will be what it wants when it wants. In the meantime I’m feeling so much better and that is all that really matters!
Keto on!!

That’s really shocked me! How dare they insult you like that. Or anyone come to that!
Try and get these toxic people out of your life. You are gorgeous and don’t need them😚
