These 55 lbs are lost forever and I am not sending a search party to find them. I am 98 days into my new lifestyle change and I am feeling good. I am so grateful to have reversed my diabetic diagnosis. I no longer have diabetes. I walked my first 5K on March 23, 2013. I am on my way to a healthier me.

This is what 55 lbs looks like. When I lifted up this flour and hamburger I could barely breathe. I am so grateful I am no longer carrying it around on my body.


Before at 402.6 lbs

After at 327.2 lbs
