You are amazing, Emmie!! Thank you for your story – I’m privileged to watch you continue on toward your goal. So true that success is about getting started…I had hoped to start a new diet today, a turning point, but ending up binging yet again. Your journey encourages me to keep on going and not give up. Thanks. Looking forward to the future!

you are such and inspiration to me, I am at my heaviest right now at 320.. 4lbs heavier than i had my son at 3 years ago… I honestly cant remember the last time i weighed less than 250, I keep telling myself I can do it but I honestly dont know how or where to start, I have been “working” with my dr since Nov 2010 and it seems all wants to do is push his pen across the prescription tablet, since then I have gained 40lbs… So I am done asking drs for help… I came across your blog and You look absolutly beautiful and stunning, I admire what your trying to do for yourself… I am looking forward to following you more… Nicole

Emmie, I’m hoping you’ll let my join you on your journey, because even though I just discovered you, I love you for what you’re doing, what you’re standing for: yourself. The beauty you know you have and you know you are is something you’re getting ready to show on the outside too.

I do not know you or your journey but are proud and admire what you are doing. Not just the weight loss but the positive attitude as well. You are a child of God which he loves you just how you are. This (all of this) is a part of who you are and if you are happy, I am sure He is happy with you. Good luck Emmie, keep your drive and your faith, no one on earth can take away anything heaven sent.

I love your blog! It’s so inspiring. I’m in high school, and Im not “fat” (I’m semi-athletic), but Im not very healthy-living. If I were to continue my bad eating/minimal/on-and-off good habits, I would become overweight. So I’m striving to be a “Skinny Emmie”! (healthy, confident, and thriving). Whenever I feel a little down or if I have a bad, unproductive, junk-food-filled day, I’ll check back here to pep myself back up.

Thankyou for your positive, productive attitude! x

Hi Emmie, I just wanted to tell you that I am a fat acceptance type, but I love what you are doing. Fat acceptance shouldn’t ever mean telling someone they aren’t allowed to change themselves. I suppose I’m more of a size positive person. People should be the size they CHOOSE to be, for whatever reason that is. Putting a moral value on size or reasons for being that size is just silly! I, too, am trying to live more healthfully, but my goals are different than your. I wish you the very best of luck!

Glad to have found your blog, Emmie! I just realized, for the first time in my life, that being overweight doesn’t mean I can’t feel pretty. I’ve spent more money on make-up and accessories in the past month than I have in my entire life. Your blog is a true inspiration!!

Wow. You are an inspiration to me. I’ve been skinny all my life, until I quit competitive swimming (but kept the athletic appetite). I lost the weight in college and in my 20′s but when the kids came along I gained nearly a hundred pounds with each one. I’m now only about 50 pounds overweight, but I’m also pushing 50 (read turned 49 this year) and losing the weight has been a struggle. You look great. You’re attitude is the one I need to keep foremost in my mind, because discouragement is plaguing me now. I love your blog. I’m putting your blog on my phone so I can read from anywhere. Thanks for the inspiration to just get up and keep trying.

Loved reading your manifesto. I am looking forward to reading your blog. I too am on a similar mission. I too want the same things that you do, I also have to do it for health reasons as I’ve started down the pre-diabetes path. Hope that we can support each other through this journey.

you can do it- your future is YOURS to make. Yes, history shapes where we might be now, but it does not determine where we’re going! Wishing you the best.

Love your blog! I read that article on Roth and almost peed myself. Not anorexic, but doesn’t eat until after she’s worked out…so 4pm. What a hoot.

Anywho, I’m tracking my progress on my blog too. I’m not obese, but overweight and have never been comfortable in my skin except for a couple years in high school when I got more in shape. Back to square 1! I’m working on being a fitter, happier tomboy.

hi emmie,

your enthusiasm is amazing. BRAVO keep it up
i’m just beginning my weight loss journey. initially i was worried with the amount of weight i have to lose (100+ pounds), thinking how am i ever going to lose ALL that weight! But i’m telling myself to forget about the numbers and go with small goals. When i first started briskwalking, my mantra was “Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders’ but that is such a ‘mouthful’ so i went with ‘No Diabetes, No Diabetes’ PP
looking forward to more of your blogs and tweets

AMAZED at your blog. Brave, honest, lovely! All the things I aspire too. I’ve browsed your blog for over an hour, cried, laughed and feel determined myself. I am going to start my own blog largely based on what I’ve seen here and a couple of other well thought out, honest, true weight loss blogs. And for that, and this one time only will I use the term I abosoulty hate…’YOU go girl!”

I love your blog. So honest. You’re a wonderful writer, and a great wit. On my own journey myself and have been blogging about it for a couple of months now. Sounds like you have a lot of wonderful supporters. I will be one of them!

You go girlfriend! I’m 60 live in Kentucky , am friends with Kristi Martin Kohm, and I’ve been heavy all my life .Except for 1 very short period of time when I went thru a lot of mental anguish. You know kind of like the person that gets a divorce and then gets skinny. Didn’t do that, but was just about as bad. Kristi told me to check out your blog, because now not only am I heavy but everything about me hurts and exercise or sometimes just trying to walk around the football field just about does me in. I can just envision them sending an ems unit to pick me up. So the jest of my rambling is, I’m very happy you are searching for skinny Emmie and when you se her tell her hi from Sandy.
