Last summer - 2009



This summer - 2010 (a little blurry, but you get the idea)


BAZAAR!! What a difference a year makes!!!!  I asked my husband to take another photo, b/c I remembered the photo from last year at my highest.  It is weird to see the weight difference in a photo sometimes.  I really had no idea how much pain my body was really in until the weight started coming off.  I thought I was a "healthy" obese person.

BTW - last year I was huffing and puffing walking around the circle with the ponies, this year, I felt like "awe, is the ride over already??" BIG DIFFERENCE

How wonderful! Losing all this weight is like getting glasses for the first time, isn't it? You never realized what you could see? Never realized what you could do?

Congratulations!

You have done such a great job!  Keep up the good work.  It feels so much better!  I did so much more this year then I have in the pass, just because I knew I couldn't do it!! Keep up the work, and work that tool! :)

WOW, what a difference Mara.

I know I thought I got around pretty good for my size, but I had no idea how it felt to really take a walk and be able to do different things.

Congratulations on your success!!
