I love how you took that leap and no matter how hard it was, you told your story! I can feel the pain in your words, but I can also feel the joy and triumph as you have overcome so much. You are amazing and I am very glad that I had the opportunity to read your story, you are an inspiration to myself and the rest of us here on MFP. You have accomplished so much and I am sure that you will accomplish so much more in your life. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!0

Wow! How can you doubt your success? You've overcome so much and done such a wonderful job finding out who you are and what is best for you! That is a tremendous success! Congratulations! You are beautiful and a real testament to hard work and dedication. I wish you all the best in continuing this healthy lifestyle - both physically and emotionally!0

This is an amazing story. You should be very proud of your accomplishments. You have done absolutely great!!!!
Congratulations and I wish you will in your future endeavors with Nursing as well. Just remember that just as weight loss is a journey so is reaching our goals. You have already decided on your Master's Degree which is awesome. Nursing isn't easy but I know that if you can accomplish what you've accomplished with your weight so can you do the same in your books.
Sometimes in life we experience some tough and nasy situations; however, it prepares us to appreciate the wonderful things that we accomplish in the future. So, inspite of all the horror you experienced as a child; you should have yourself a party for not letting it make you quit.
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -

Thank you so much for sharing your story. Never be sorry about the route life took you on. It has made you what/who you are today. I have only been on MFP for a week. To come across a story like yours shows me there is hope for me. I am at a point that I hate myself and everything about me because of my weight. I don't have as much to lose as you did, which shows me that if you can make the journey to lose 153lbs then I can do what I need to. No excuses, no whining, no more poor me. When it seems impossible I am going to re-read your story to give me the strengh to continue on.
Thanks again for sharing!0 -
