Ya'll are so stinkin' cute. And I applaud you for being brave enough to show these pictures. You are beautiful and bright and motivated and inspiring. You amaze me more with every post.

After reading all these positive comments I think you know that you're making a statement about how all of us should be living our lives.
You have an uncommon candor and sincerity and that makes you truly beautiful. One of my favorite quotes by a 19th century English Quaker says "Never tell a child,” said George MacDonald, ‘you have a soul. Teach him, you are a soul; you have a body.’ As we learn to think of things always in this order, that the body is but the temporary clothing of the soul....." He was referencing how we should mourn but it's not just death that we often mourn. Often we mourn the loss of our youthful beauty, the strength and vigor of young bodies, and the easy grace of youth, but if we are very fortunate, as you apparently are, we come to know that beauty is in the love we give and receive. I think you're quite lovely.

Thanks for sharing. I am sure that was really hard. I have taken pictures but don't have the COURAGE that you did to show anyone yet. Keep doing what you are doing and I will try to take my own advice! We CAN do this.

I love your post and your devotion. I always see everyones before and after threads and sit back and envy the courage they have. Ive always been paranoid of how *I* see myself as well as how others see me. Your post *may* have just given me the courage boost to add another picture to my profile that I took the other night. *maybe*

Keep on keepin' on!

You are awesome, brave, and my hero. I applaud your courage. I am 60 and I have the same body issues from a lifetime of yo-yo dieting.

Today I weigh 229 and have been with MFP for almost 2 weeks. Because of your honesty, wit, and positive outlook, I feel encouraged that I, too, can be successful!

Thanks for sharing!
