    You absolutely rock!! Great and awesome job. I have emailed your information to my hubby who is currently over 500lbs. I am trying to be a motivation for him, but I am trying to show him different success stories and hope he can relate to one! Keep up the great work!

    Amazing!! You and I have exact same thoughts on diets. I don't call it a diet anymore. I call it my life choice. Being smaller doesn't make a person happy, but it sure doesn't hurt! :) Great job! You are definitely inspiring. :)

    I love your advice! Seriously. All these fad diets and fads of cutting certain foods are ridiculous. Awhile back it was fat, now they are saying fat is needed after all (duh), and 2013 was the year of no grains which I'm betting in a year or two there will be a big study showing how important they are after all. You have a great, well balanced approach to getting healthy and are doing amazingly well!! I will check out your links because after reading what you had to say I respect your opinion. ;) Keep on!

    What an awesome story you got there... I love your methods for I believe in practically the same - moderation, movement, and learning how to enjoy life is what will get us to where we want to be -- falling in love with who we are and not what we believe we should look like will def. leads us to happiness - of course if what you see in the mirror is pleasing to your own eye that will boost that happiness but it isn't all.
