    Thank you for sharing as your story is the story of so many of us. Your emotions match those I have experienced on many a day - the depression and tiredness brought on by eating thousands of empty calories. Brilliant work on your part, both the writing and, of course, the amazing transformation you have experienced.

    That is awesome. Good on you! My best friend is a bit over halfway through the same journey, but never really talks about how he felt at his biggest. He was up to abuot 450 and is down almost 200 pounds now.
    Very nice insight.

    Wow, what a story. I was tearing up reading the pain you described. You are truly a gifted writer- you made me really understand how awful you felt. It sounded agonizing :( Despite the fact that I've never met you, I am so happy & proud for your success. You look absolutely fabulous (hot even!) and I congratulate you on changing your life. Best to you on your continued journey...it's forever!

    I love your story, I love your honesty and openness about being hatefully overweight and stuck shopping where no one wants to be, I love your progress and your emotional journey that you shared. You are a rare gem, and I applaud you for fixing yourself rather than continue wallowing in the same rut of self pity. Id give you a big ole smooch and a hug, but you will have to settle for a flower.

    Great job, and dont ever lose sight of where you were and how far you have come. You look intense.

    :heart: :flowerforyou:

    You're pretty amazing. The weight loss is remarkable and you should be feeling very proud of yourself for that, but I also think you have a gift for writing. I'm envious!

    What the wha??? You're a completely different person now! To say that you did a great job is clearly an understatement, this is just wow! But what did you do and how did you do it? I hope you don't mind sharing it here. =)

    OMG I want to cry and hug you. Cry for the sadness you went through and the joy of being able to change your life around. You look like a different person but it's fantastic that you can finally be the person you always wanted to be. Live your life the way you've always - I'm sure you will. Fantastic commitment to get to where you have and you look amazing! xx
