I look back at where I was and try to recall what all has changed. Some things are hard to put a finger on, but I think day in day out I have more energy. I know my body feels better, my knees hurt less, my sleep patterns are better, and just overall I feel more healthy. I will say that mentally I am stronger overall, but even at 101 lbs down I am definately learning new things. At some point complacency sets in and it is hard to overcome. I am doing my best to make the right choice most of the time, but doing that all the time is just not realistic. Maybe that is the way it should be. Maybe that is a sign of "living a lifestyle".
I have now lost over 100 pounds. I am going to reflect a bit and get back at it. If you are struggling I reccomend refelting and looking at how far you have come. I might post a reflection post later. Till then. Thank you to everyone for all of your support. I have a ways to go yet but I am not sure I could have done it without all of you guys!

Congratulations Matt. That's some impressive weight loss. You are right in that it's impossible to make good choices ALL the time. I think if you are 90% compliant with your program, the remaining 10% is not going to make that much difference. Again congrats and keep it going!
Rock on, Matt! You're doing great.
That's huge. Congrats and keep fighting the good fight.
what a great accomplishment! congratulations!
That's awesome, Matt! Congratulations!! I can't wait till I hit that sub-300 mark myself!
So do you have any new weight loss or health goals you're aiming for now?
Thanks to all for you comments!
Will, I will be doing the 5k, but I am going working towards 280 by Thanksgiving. I need to get on the stick, but that is the newest, yet to be made completely blog public goal.
What an accomplishment. 101 pounds is astounding. Keep it up!
Two-ter-ville!!! You 'da man!!!
YESSSSSS! I am so proud of you! Way to go!
Way to go Matt! You rock!
De-lurking to say 'way to go' for losing over 100 pounds! You have the right attitude - keep on keepin on even when you stumble. The pay off will be well worth it - you already know that!
Congrats!
By the way...I forgot to add that I am from Missouri - born in St. Louis, and my parents live in Stockton now...way down in the SW corner from you! Missouri is a great state!
Good Job Buddy! I know that it is only 1 lb, but you must admit that to say that you are in the "200's" feels great..
That's freakin awesome!
On side note: Sorry to all you non Football fans...
It is sad to say, but Tennessee got their butts kicked by Florida.. BlaH!!
BUT, Mizzou kicked a** again. If it wasn't for the 3 fumbles, Mizzou would've put up another 50!
Congratulations on your 101 lb loss!
