    Wow, you are an amazing inspiration to me! I'm trying hard to lose a large amount of weight, too. I feel sometimes it's daunting, but the more stories I read of amazing people like you with big losses, I realize it's all about sticking to it because it's going to take time. It took 21 years to gain my extra weight... so what's a couple of years to lose it? Thanks again for your story!

    Amazing work, you have inspired me so much more - and not just with the weight loss, but the fact you went from running a 5K to a marathon in 7 months! Holy crap that's awesome!! Goes to show we are capable of more than our limited minds think sometimes. Keep up the awesome work. All the best for your goals ahead :)

    Amazing that someone that was once so unfit, and overweight can change their habits and lose all that weight. I choked up several times reading your story. Very inspirational. Congratulations to you and your wife. May you have many, many happy years to enjoy one another's company.
