    Hi Susan, you are an inspiration. Congratulations on your weight loss accomplishment, that is impressive!!! How did you do it? I am trying to lose 30 pounds here and at times it has been very difficult. This time I am committed to reach my goal and so far I have lost 5 pounds!

    Did you lose over 300 pounds on your own, or you had surgery? Your story is really motivating! Welcome back to life!!!!!!:smile:
