I've never posted on this particular board before..but I have been on here for a few weeks have shared some of my story..on the intro page..In Dec. 2011 I was on two forms of life support..very slim chance to live.. couldnt talk, breath, or walk...660lbs..by Gods Mercy and grace...I can now..not only breath, walk (without a walker)..I work out most everyday..but train with my trainer at least 3times aweek and NOW weight 340lbs.. NEVER EVER GIVE UP.. There is always HOPE as long as you are breathing...Just try to make changes even if small.and move...I am loving my new life...I can sit in a booth , at a rest. I can wear my seatbelt..I can tie my shoes..SOOO MUCH~~~And I am going to fly on a plane for the first time in over 30yrs in the next few months~ SOO MUCH OUT THERE that others take for granted..That I am like a little kid about ~~ Hope this can help in at least some small way..GOD saved me for a reason...To share what all HE has done for me..and let others know that you don't have to live your life that way~"I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME~~"

    I'm very proud of you.. but, this was all you. YOU decided to do this for yourself, and YOU had the strength to do this. Don't give the credit to some "god". Take ownership of your accomplishments, it's 100% you.
