    1 peter 4:8 - above all, love each other deeply, because love covers a multitude of sins.

    based on the comments and encouragement of everyone here and those around you, you are loved very deeply! it's wonderful that you are exercising and being bold and honest with yourself and everyone else. you are loved by all for who you are and not simply your appearance! i've read some of your other posts as well and i can echo everyone else here. you are adorable inside and outside!

    you are a very blessed woman indeed to have such a wonderful friend, coach, and husband by your side, as well as being surrounded by a great support network here on MFP. keep up the awesome work, i'm looking forward to seeing more of your progress and your posts!

    Don't be so down on yourself! You remind me very much of my mom (and of my aunt, who also had knee replacements, but hasn't managed to lose the weight).

    The difference is, you are *getting somewhere* with your weight loss. You're super-determined, and it's showing.


    And just as I valued (and still value) my mom and aunt, regardless of their weight, the people in your life value you, FOR you, no matter what you weigh, or what that weight looks like.

    Kudos for getting back into the pool - that will help you so much on your journey!

    It's not about how you look, but how you feel, and clearly you're feeling better every day. :-)

    I love the way you own this - both the challenges of your life and success of it. A true awakening like this brings about not just physical changes, but personal growth and spiritual connections.

    All the best! Great work and deduction.

    Actually,weight loss doesn't cover up any Sins.
    1st Peter 4:8,"And above all things have fervent love
    for one another, for love will cover a
    multitude of sins.”

    Jesus died for your sins.
    That's love.

    Sweet lady, you look just as I do. I see those same sags and folds, and I am 34 years old.

    The TRUTH? The truth is, I saw someone with courage, a lovely smile, pride in her accomplishment to date, and an honest approach to this process. You'd be amazed at how rare a gem you are!

    I saw beauty. And a cute bathing suit. And an ADORABLE couple in your and your husband!

    Thanks for sharing, and for encouraging me, whom has just started her weight loss journey. My fiftieth, AND LAST, attempt.
