Kelly: I don't say it enough (like, ever!) but there are a few people on this board whom I admire & look up to. You are definitely one of them. Your positive attitude & outlook are inspiring to me.

Keep up the great work! I can only hope that one day I can look back on my journey & be as proud & inspirational as you are!

Thank you Dawn. Your blog has taught me well....and I know that it can be tough time ahead as I enter year three and the dreaded gain as my body evens out. I'm trying hard to prepare myself for it!

I feel young, that's for sure and I'm loving the blonde

Wow, amazing results!  I'm not sure I'd have recognized you if I'd last seen you before surgery and then met you now.  You must still get that when you meet people you haven't seen in a few years.

But more importantly, you are healthy and strong and happy, living the life you want to live and working on the issues you need to work on.  That's really great - congratulations!

I do get that a lot, and now a new NSV was from my mom. My brother showed her my two year post on Facebook and said that he doesn't recognize me from my before pic! I spent over 20 years bouncing around that weight. So it's nice to hear that people see me as me now, not with the shock that I've lost so much. Know what I mean?

Wonderful story, and you look fabulous. Such a flat belly, I want that, too!
