It was actually your post that helped me find this forum!
I have to agree with the others, your post here is DEFINITELY an inspiration!
I did decide to have the WLS but now am rethinking that decision. You lost the weight without the WLS and that is really what I want to be able to do.
Thank you for posting your story and before/after photos! That helps me know that it IS possible to lose all this weight!

'Bout time to change your username, girl!!! haha.
LOOK AT YOU!!! I think I have already commented on this thread before, but I just cannot believe the transformation from your before pics to now!!! You look AT LEAST 10 years younger. Your skin is glowing and your smile says it all.
I just wanted to say congrats on your progress so far and keep up the good work.
BTW, I did also see the other pics where you were comparing those pants. YES, that button has definitely moved over more.

You went from walking five miles to jogging 30 minutes a day, twice a day?! Wow, that transition must have been intense.

Well, it was a gradual change but yes, it was pretty intense especially for someone who had not been active in years and years
