Whoo! You're an inspiration. My goal is to get from 409 (I'm down pre-op to 386 now) to 160-ish.

I hope I'm as successful as you are!

That is just awesome Mary! I still am amazed how good you look each time I see you in Houston! What a blessing the DS has been for you.

My gosh, Mary, I am so darn proud of you. I remember your posts on the yahoo board from way back when you wondered if you'd ever be able to make this happen, and now look at you!!! I can't wait to see some updated photos! Are you still working like a madwoman trying to tame that back yard of yours?? Your energy level must be amazing. What an inspiration you are to others! Many hugs to you!
