    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing this. I felt like I was reading my own story, but in your life, and your circumstances. I cried reading it.

    I've ran 5, 10, 15K races this season. I just finished my first triathlon (sprint) a few weeks ago. I was obese all my life. Now, I can officially call my self a "triathlete" and a runner.

    Thank you. And congrats on your new life!!! You are going to be one of the most inspirational iron-men EVER.
