Hello, Sarah, may God continue to bless you!! I read a lot of stories on this site and they all have encouraged and motivated me, but your story is the one that I actually responded to.

Thank you for I Corinthians 6:19-20!!!!!

I already know this Word, but I think I needed to hear it right now. Not just for my weight loss but for everything I do in this body.

I am also glad you didn’t wait until all the weight was off, but let us join you in your journey. I hope to hear more from you.

Just want to say be proud of what you have lost so far, it is an achievement that you have committed to being a healthier you! I am just getting started and I too have a long way to go but we have to start somewhere. For me I need to lose at least 100 – 120 to reach my goal, but I will celebrate every loss, no matter how big or small.

I’m so proud of you Sarah you’re doing great. You may not think 27lbs is a lot, but it is. Just think about where you started from. I can definitely see the change/difference in your pictures. Keep going you can do this. God is on your side and He wants you to take care of His temple. Also, surround yourself with positive people who support what you’re doing. It’s also a good way to help you stay focused, on track and accountable for reaching your goal. I know you can do this Sarah because I weighed 350lbs and lost 149lbs by eating healthy and exercising. God has empowered you, Sarah, to do this and the change has started. Welcome to the beginning of a healthy you. So, be encouraged, be courageous, be bold, be proactive and love yourself enough to take care of you. Can’t wait to see your follow-up pictures.
