This story just brought me to tears - in a happy, inspired way! I can't relate to this level of obesity, but I can relate to the struggle, that has turned out to be (I guess) lifelong.

Hope you find something inspiring in this, as well:

    I can't relate to being that size, but I know what it's like to carry more than my body should handle. Such a moving story! Thank you so much for sharing!
