    Sir, I am in your shoes. I have begun my journey to kill a man. I am twice the man most men are, and I want the other man in me to die.

    There is one thing I am dreading. It is not the dieting or the exercise, it is the left over skin. How did you cope or handle it?

    I don't about it, that's a bridge you'll cross at the end of your journey, not now, don't sweat it for now.

    Focus on succeeding, let the extra skin be a spoil of war.

    Holy crap!!! That is such an inspiring story!! I loved the way you wrote it too; it is the perfect description of almost everyone's beginning to weight loss: hitting rock bottom and absolutely refusing to put on one more pound. I am right there now and hope to not just lose weight but be healthy, which is the true gold. Your story is very, very incredible!!! Just congrats to you!!

    Wow! So more than happy for you. You never have to feel that way again. Your story made me breathe hard and want to cry. Please share this on more than MFP. Maybe Huffington Post. The way you described your feelings was terribly eloquent. More People need to hear this.

    I read through your emotional story, scrolled through the before photos, and when I came to the after photos I actually said, "Oh, WOW!" out loud in my living room! My dog just woke up and stared at me, LOL. Fantastic story. Glad you reclaimed your life. :)
