Me at 320 pounds May 2008

The following photos below in this message are two face shots and a goal body shot. I have not been the best taking pictures throughout my journey. For those of you on Facebook you have already seen these photos but thought since I finally after a year figured out how to paste in an e-mail I would send them.

For all you newbies hang in there you will get there. For anyone struggling you too hang in there you will get there. It is not easy and it seems like a far journey to get to goal I for one could not be done it took me 6 weeks longer than anticipated but I don't let that both me because I did it. Now I am going below goal weight but think that I am just about done at this point as I am not looking to lose more weight (wow!! I thought I would never hear myself say that!!!) LOL

Thank you everyone for all your support and encouragement you all contributed to my success and I thank god I found all of you.

Hugs to all
Terri
