    WOW. I just got this private message. It made me angry.
    hanks for the inspiration :)

    You both look really happy in your 'before' photo... but I don't see that in your eyes anymore in your 'after' photo.. don't forget to take time to be happy, as well as beautiful.

    so I responded.
    actually in the first picture, we were drunk.

    in the second, we had been talking as we were dancing, and were not expecting a picture as the photographer called to us to look at her. We were at a benefit for the family of a friend of ours who is critically ill, so although we were dancing, the event was a little melancholy. As well, my husband had root canal that morning, so he wasn't exactly chipper.

    I hate to reciprocate your negativity, but has no one ever told you, if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all?

    One should never attempt to make an assumption based on one photo. ugh. I can't believe I am letting your comment bother me this much. please don't contact me again.

    I stopped short of posting the mfp user's name. The spiteful b*tch inside me wanted to.

    I cannot BELIEVE someone would send you something like that. People are just something else sometimes. Glad you shared and brushed it off.

    I truly think that the people with all of the negative comments are jealous of others success & want to sabatoge it...If it's not about them then they try to make it about them....

    JEALOUS people SUCK!!

    You two look so happy together in both photos....I am a lil jealous of you though - but in a good way...You seem to have a wonderful life & husband...Something I would love to have someday....Plus success in your new healthy lifestyle....

    Congrats on all of it!! You are inspiring!! :heart:

    Almost doesn't look like you in the pic. Nice job!
    Did your eating effect your hubby any? It almost looks like he has dropped a few as well.
    Keep up the good work and glad you didn't wait.

    Yes actually, he does a lot of the cooking, as he is home more than me. He likes to prepare food that the whole family can have, so his food prep has moved away from so many sauces and marinades etc. He's been walking with me too, and has dropped about 15 pounds and put on a bit of muscle. His blood pressure is now pretty good, considering he still smokes :-( but he's working on that. It is really so gratifying that we are making this change to be healthy and live longer together :heart: He has always been kind, loving, attentive and supportive, it's also nice to hear through the grape vine how he "brags" about my success. :blushing:
    thats so awesome about your loss and you are a lucky girl!

    Great job.. Thanks for posting your before & after pics... You have done amazing. I now am 30 pounds down in my journey.. I love seeing stories like this.. It really motivates & encourages me & everyone else who is doing this.. And for the negative message, just ignore it.. Some people have no sense at all.. Great job on the weightloss & the message back to that stupid person... Good luck....
