    When I got up today and came to MFP the first thing I did was to look for a success story. Thank you for sharing yours, you've inspired me to keep on going.

    Thank you for sharing your story. I, too, am about to leave the hospital with more prescriptions and 250 lbs to lose. I was worried because physical exercise is difficult due to health issues, but your story reminds me that success starts in the kitchen (and in a change of thinking). Thank you, God bless :)
