    Sorry for the lost of your mother but she would be proud of you. I lost my younger brother last year and it took me through a depression stage where i ate to console my self and i packed on about 20lbs. I took a look at myself and i said he would want this he would want me to live my life to the fullest because its how he lived his everyday. I knew it would take me losing the weight to start it off. Again you look awesome and you a real inspiration.

    I don't think I've ever replied to a success story post, (though I read them avidly as I find them so inspiring!) but I just had to say WOW and so well done. You have done the best thing for your kids and you are truly an inspiration to everyone here. :flowerforyou:

    You are the ultimate example!! Soooo proud of you and for TAKING your life back, ripping it away from an early death as well! Im sure you are an inspiration to all of us here, but more importantly, to your own children! They will see that mommy was able to make sacrifice and dedication to do the RIGHT thing and be there for them. You win because you not only made them a priority, you made YOURSELF a priority. I love that you love yourself enough to want to be there with your kids and family. I am proud to have you as my friend!

    Amazing, inspirational and motivational story! Sorry it took the loss of a loved one to do it. Hopefully your story will help others in a similar situation and prevent someone from going though what you went through.

    Amy, I was in need of some inspiration this morning and your post and pics were exactly what I needed! Thank you for sharing your story. I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. Your children will miss so much. But they will have a fit and fabulous mom, a great role model and so will their grandchildren. Bless you and best wishes on your life's journey. You are so beautiful inside and out!
