    hi there again, I just re-read your post and just wanted to say personally welcome! I was curious about you because you sound like a completely selfless person yet you didn't sound like you gave yourself much credit because of your weight. You are beautiful, inside and out! Sounds silly and cliche' but just saying -

    My husband of 25 years made me feel badly enough inside that I was 90 lbs at 5'8" at one point. I know to overweight people that sounds like whinning but really it was sick. It took me 10 years to stop starving myself or throwing up. I then met a wonderful man who loves me for who I AM! Not my body, but me. My point is, I learned to love me, and by doing so I am so much healthier, mind, body and spirit to take care of my own.

    Just my thoughts - peace
