I honestly have tears in my eyes from reading this (as I sit here debating going to bootcamp tonight). I am so happy for you, this beautiful stranger who has made me cry and is now inspiring me to go put my sneakers on. I can absolutely feel the limitless possibilities that are ahead of you.0

I'm new here to MFP but your success story is an example of why I joined! I'm basically where you were a year ago. I'm just beginning my journey... The success stories I read inspire me to be a better me. Your's has given me hope anew.
You look FABULOUS!!! Congratulations on all the hard work, you inspire me so much! Hopefully I will be posting a year from now with a similar success story!
Thanks for the inspiration! YOU ROCK!! (and your son is cute as a button!!)

Thank you for sharing your story along the way. I first saw your posts/ blog this March or April when I joined MFP. I always log on & check to see what you have posted. Such inspiration for all of us. Thank you!
You look so strong, healthy & fit. Love that you did this all with such healthy eating & exercise....and documented it along the way for the rest of us :-) Congrats on your amazing success this past year. It's been 3 months for me & still going strong. Reading success stories such as yours keep me motivated. Again,thanks for sharing.0 -
Great, inspiring, awesome story!! I too am a Mpls mom, 15+ years older, but battling the kid/work/tired thing you must be challenged with having a young boy. I haven't logged on to MFP for about 1 month, and suprisingly am at a lower weight today then 1 month ago. However, I did log on again today and am inspired again after reading your post. Thanks!0

I'm Gobsmacked and I'm printing off the "A year from now..." quote.0

The past year of your life sounds very similar to the past year of my life.
I so enjoyed reading your story and seeing your pictures, and I loved the introduction of losing weight using diet pills from Mexico! I have had so many people ask me how I've lost weight and then become disappointed when I have told them that I am continually evolving my lifestyle to be more healthy in nutrition and exercise. I have considered just answering that it is a side effect to meth use. I think they would be more pleased with that answer!
Congratulations! You look awesome!0 -
What a fantastic testament, love your sense of humor, you look great, congratulations!!!0

Thanks for sharing! That was incredibly inspirational to read.0

You seem like a strong-willed person. Not surprised you took control of your health.
Life winner.
