    This story is really touching and reminds me so much of where I need to be on this journey. Something clicked for you, and I am desperate to have it click for me. Your success is awesome, but your story even better. You really are an inspiration and I wish you so much continued success. Thanks for opening up for others - you have no idea what it means.

    You are so fabulous! I really wish a relative of mine would read your story, but I know I can't push. It is a decision that we each have to make on our own. Thank you for posting. I have been demotivated lately, but your post has really inspired me. God bless!

    Happy 1 year anninversary! You are doing a great job! Not just with the diet and execersing, but with the emotional part. Thanks for sharing that part of your story, so many of us go through that. Learning how to cope without the food is hard, especially when that is how some of us were raise/brought up! See ya at the finish line!

    Have you noticed that people who treated you badly before don't recognize you or may even look at you as attractive now?
    Do you feel yourself get bitter about it?

    How do you deal with those people?

    congratulations! amazing story and pictures. you are doing a fantastic job! -- interesting the way health care works in different countries. living in the US, it's hard to believe that you would have to wait 7-10 years for a surgery. but, i'm so glad that it worked in your favor and that you ended up losing on your own. you can show that surgeon he's not worth waiting for!

    How do you deal with those people?

    Yes I am dealing with this...I've been frustrated many times that people NOW find me atttractive. It's a mind *kitten* for me.....but my true friends and family love me no matter my size or appearance. Now that guys are finding me attractive it's a whole new world....I get mad at times but it's just a reality of this all that I have to deal with.

    I do get treated differently by the general public, like people will now talk to me in grocrey line ups and now I am not invisiable...I still struggle with this on a daily basis and it makes me mad...

    I don't know how to deal with it...I am still learning. I treat people the same way as I always have with respect...nothing has changed on my behalf.

    Sorry I don't have any answers for you. It's just a reality that I have to deal with. Sometimes I binge over it....
