    Thanks everyone!

    I did notice a couple of comments regarding the marathon and wanted to clarify -

    It was a full marathon - 26.2 miles... and I already ran it. It was on 04/07/2013. My time was 04h:42m. On page (10) of this thread, there are some pictures I posted from the event.

    Thanks again for the kind words!

    Over 100 pounds in 6 months--that alone is amazing! And you have done such a WONDERFUL job.
    And congrats on being able to say you ran a FULL marathon!

    I've only seen them live twice... but they have a few more dates this year that aren't too far from me... I may see them soon.. :-)

    Like the way you have changed yourself. Its both inspiring and encouraging for others. Apart from a regular diet chat and exercises, a positive attitude is a must to attain this kind of transformation.

    I agree 100%!

    To expound upon that a little, I've learned one thing that doesn't come easily - it really is a journey rather than a destination. I appreciate that cliche more now than ever. Having the positive attitude and enjoying yourself - rather than viewing the journey as a burden - are two things that have helped me immensely.
