Update - 3 1/2 weeks out
Great job Mare! I am SO happy for you and the great feelings you are experiencing. It will only get better and better for you! It sucks being short sometimes huh. I feel ya, girlfriend! Now, I am always in search of the illusive petites (thrift store shopping). Before I was in search of the plus stuff which was always mixed in with the regular sized clothing.....now it's another challenge...lol. But I like this challenge better.
Keep up the great work Mare!

Mare -
I'm so very happy for you. Not 'just' the 27 lbs., the increased energy and stamina, but realizing that you are getting your life back. I think you are so right when you say that we often don't realize that the light of day is slowly being shut out and now that the door is opening, the sunshine on our faces feels glorious! Enjoy that feeling. Celebrate it everyday. Remember it when you have difficult choices to make.
Congratulations on all of the little and big WOWs you celebrate and thank you for sharing them with us, so that we can share them with you.
