    Isn't this so funny that we realize we had the power to change the things we needed to change in order to have the life we wanted all along...

    Your story is pretty close to mine -- I started at 245 and a tight size 24. Today, I'm a 6 in regular clothes and a 4 in jeans. I've lost 110 pounds and couldn't be happier if I won the lottery.

    I can move around without being winded, I can climb 8 flights of stairs without calling 911, I can sit down without wondering if I would break the chair (which happened at a party a couple of years ago). People don't look at me with disgust or fear.

    My boys are very happy with my success and I couldn't have done it without them. My husband changed one thing (no soda/no sweet tea) and has lost over 50 pounds. It's funny how we make a decision about our lives and the lives of our families seem to get better.

    Congratulations to you and your family...your successes today will lead into a promising future of live, love and happiness! :)

    Starting is so many times the easiest part. I really like that you shared that you had to "reset" etc many times. I am really encouraged by your story! I am on a journey and I'm hoping that I can stay on the road longer than I'm at the rest stops. My goal is huge and can seem so daunting. I love hearing that you are able to do more stuff with your kids, that's my goal! Stories like yours, honest and wonderfully uplifting are great! Keep up the good work and I wish you luck on the last 15 you are trying to hit. Y'all look great!

    You both look great. The picture of you standing in your old pants really did it for me. I've been discouraged a few times by a slow down in my loss, but that picture really puts the big (no pun intended) picture back in the front of my mind. Great job both of you. Your husband is pretty cute too.

    Teresa,
    You and your husband are a fabulous looking couple! Your blog made me tear up not once, but several times as I felt like your story is what I want mine to be like in the future. My hubby is wonderfully supportive, but hasn't made the decision to accompany me on this journey...YET. Your story inspires me not only to keep going, but to believe that staying the course could possibly lead to his joining me on this journey. I am going to keep looking at your pictures and BELIEVE. Thank you for sharing.
