WOOHOO!!!!! I made it to the Before and after Page after only 5 months!!!! I can remember sitting here looking at those pictures wondering if I would EVVERRRR make it there... It was sooo surreal clicking on that page and seeing myself there... I couldnt help but to cry thinking about how far some of us go to be healthy Also an awesme lady by the name of Karen (awesome name in itself, lol) added a couple more pictures to my profile.. One of Andres and I, and my favorite one that absolutely WOWS me. It's a 5 month before an after side shot comparison.... this picture is one that all my friends freak out over and always say.. Karen.. I had no idea... You never looked that big... I always tell them.. You were my friends you looked beyond size..and looked inside me.. as every true friend should... Thanks to everyone on this site, and the spouses freinds and family that stand by us..... that see beyond what the eyes can see, and truely looks into someones heart and soul.. and loves them because of who they are as a person now what appears on the outside...

Whoooooo Girl. First I want to thank you for sharing this all with us. Secondly I want to say what a beautiful family you have. You are so right about how our friends and loved ones see us. You were definately right about the side pics. It is like 2 completely different people standing there. I can not imagine how great you feel about your looks, your energy, and most of all how you feel inside. You are a great inspiration. We will be here any time you want to come by and inspire us. YOu are ahead of so many of us, and we really need people like you to keep us motivated. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us, and I look foreward to hearing from you again soon. Let us know what you are able to do that you could not before. I really can not wait to soak in the tub again. If I sat down in it there would be no room for water and hubby would have to call the fire department to get me out of it. God bless you Donna

Hey Karen, I tell you what, those pictures are hard to believe. But you know what, they look absolutly amazing. You should be jumping up and down everyday yelling "I did it". And your attitude, GREAT. How on earth did you get it so together? You are one heck of a person, that is all I can say. I hope that you keep posting on a regular basis here with us. B/C the way you are going, is truely an inspiration to me.
