    AMAZING! Congratulations to you...for so many things. Overcoming your addiction to alcohol, losing all that weight, having these great goals and meeting them. I commend you, sir, you are quite the inspiration. It gave me pause, as I have felt like it will be an uphill battle to lose my 48 lbs...but WOW...you really had a lot of obstacles and you stayed true to your goals and that tells me I can do it too.

    Keep up the good work. Stay on the wagon and keep on going with your goals and life.

    PS-Please stay on the wagon, as a woman who has dealt (in the past) with an alcoholic husband who refused to get help and wouldn't stop drinking, it truly destroys the lives around you and the ones you love. I was broken after that divorce, as it took all of the energy I had just to maintain as normal of a life as I could in that situation. Luckily, I have a healthy marriage now and it makes all the difference in how I feel about mine and my husband's future, knowing that I survived that and moved on before it completely destroyed my life (as it was on the verge of doing just that).
