    First of all, what a beautiful story. It takes a lot for me to cry when I read something, but today I did. What you have done is absolutely phenomenal.You look so accomplished. I can't thank you enough for sharing. I have about 40 lbs to lose and now I know I can do this. Did you exercise a lot? You should think about becoming a author because the way you described your former life, I felt like I was there with you. Just one last statement.. ALL RIGHT ALL RIGHT ALL RIGHT........GREAT JOB

    +1000! Heartbreaking and uplifting all at the same time. Congratulations on taking control of your life. You did amazing work, and I was right there with you on the clothes thing. Who ever said that large women liked to wear sparkly studded tops, and sleeveless at that?! Keep on rockin' it!

    IKR? Thats just what I need to draw even more attention to the swaying fat under my arms, sleevless and sequins.

    I was totally captivated reading your story, knowing all to well what these struggles feel like and how it feels to break away from the self made cages we created for ourselves.

    Congratulations, you have done a fantastic job, and I am sure your body thanks you for it. We all have those shopping day horror stories and I am excited for the day when I can just go into the mall and buy from a regular store.

    I wish you lots of great health and successes for your future, keep up the great work. You are a great example, thank you for sharing your story!!

    Couldn't see any photos. Beautifully written. You should be a writer.Write what you know . Your words speak for many, who pray for the same release you have given yourself. I suppose there are mean people, however, when I see a very heavy person I silently send them well wishes because I can see how difficult life is for them. Cruel addiction. "We are all just prisoners here, of our own device" Your journey shows we hold the key. Thanks for sharing, it takes courage. Enjoy and treasure your new life.
