    You are my hero in more ways than one! First and most importantly bravo on the weight loss. That is so incredible!! I can only imagine how great you must feel everyday without half of yourself there anymore! Second, when I was working and had to send emails to coworkers on things I needed them to do or correct, I always made up the lyrics to different songs saying what I needed done to make myself seem less bossy lol. They always got a kick out of it.

    Wow that was absolutely incredible. I am fighting so hard to find my inspiration again. I lost a bunch of weight 2 years ago then gained alot back now I am trying to get back on track again.

    Huh. That is the same height as the average height for all American women (2011-2014). I guess I'm pointing this out because you are not really short for a woman if half the population of is shorter than you and half taller. :)

    Awesome! Although I think the title is wrong, while weight wise you might be half the woman, I'm sure in all other ways you're twice the woman you were! You can see the confidence in your smile, the happiness in your eyes! Congratulations on the positive accomplishment and good luck on your future journey!
