I am so thankful to have not failed again at getting healthy! I have so much energy, and feel so great, and am among the living again.
Last year at this time I hated to go out (I had NOTHING to wear) I isolated myself and felt such hopelessness and shame. So in March I had had enough, and although very frightened to fail, yet again at a "diet" I decided to make some changes. God is so good, and has given me amazing success one day at a time! MFP has been quite a help as well, your stories and ideas have helped, thanks y'all! Happy New Year, may you have a blessed 2013#!!
Not sure how to post a photo, I have a before and now as my profile!

    Amazing how much you have lost in such a short time! Any tips or key strategies that you would recommend to others?

    thank you all for your nice words. As far as tips, drink at least half your body weight (in ounces) of water a day, count calories and keep the carbs low so you burn fat! I used Medifast products, and was never hungry (am I allowed to say that?) hope so.
