I am happy where I am at today. I enjoy looking in the mirror. I finally feel like the old me has returned. I am no longer depressed. I actually look forward to living my life. I have dreams again. I think in terms of possibilities. I laugh more, and I cry less. I do not live my life in fear. I am okay with rejection. I do not take things as personal as I use to when I was heavier.
I believe that I have been blessed, and I am grateful for this gift. This has been a defining moment in my life.
I want to live my life with purpose and meaning. It is amazing how taking off this weight has freed me not only physically but emotionally.
Thank you again for sharing with me. I wish each of you a great rebirth day! Let's continue in success together.

Congratulations on your great "loss". That was wonderful to go down alot inches and pounds. June 22nd was my 1st re-birthday this year also. I went from 285lbs.to 214lbs. From size 28 to size 20 now. Went from wearing 3x to 1x now, somethings in xl size. Don't get too many people noticing me, but my ex-husband thought I looked sexy and wanted to remarry me. Yeah, right, I don't think so. Keep up the great work.
