People beat "the odds" everyday in a multitude of ways. I don't see why each and everyone of us can't do the same. And as it was mention by pp's as long as you have a maintenance plan in addition to your weight loss plan and stick to it, you have nothing to worry about. It can be pretty simple.

But you know what Kel...you and your husband are special. You have achieved what MILLIONS try and never succeed at. You have managed to take off a substantial amount of weight. You ARE in the rare percentage.

Stats may be off, people don't report their weight loss...yada, yada. But just counting the people YOU know, and that I know in real life...your accomplishment is more than most overweight people can dream about. You rock the weight loss world girl!
