1/2 the woman I once was

Hi Melissa,
Looking at you now, I would never imagined you weighed in the 400's! I can't wait to be a looser with you!

Thanks Connie. It is sometimes hard not to see the 400 lb woman staring back at me. I hope your journey is swift and full of wonder when you finally join the loser's bench.

Congratulations, Melissa!  That is absolutely amazing!  I am so proud of you!

Thanks Lisa. I am so glad I had the surgery. This would have never happened without it!

You go girl!!!  That's great!!!

Thanks!

I didn't know you at your highest weight so it is hard for me to imagine you that big. You look great. 214 lbs... I truly can't imagine having to carry that around daily. I bet you must feel so much better. I know that everyday I feel a little stronger and lighter. I have not lost 1/2 of me yet but that is what I will end up doing if I meet my goal. I am down 78 lbs and I can't imagine carrying that around for even 5 minutes. You have done a wonderful job. I am very proud of you.

Way to go Melissa!! You look fantastic!!! Congratulations

Darcie

It's emotional just reading about your amazing realization and transformation, Melissa.  I am just so happy for you and you look so great, especially since your recent repairs...wowza!  I look at those photos with a keen eye since I have the same issue going on right now.  You give me great hope!  {{{Hugs}}}
