Thanks everyone for the comments. I appreciate all of the support :) I have to say it hasn't been easy. It sounds and feels great and is totally worth it, but sometimes I get SO frustrated!! Those who tell me that I'm taking the easy way out, have definitely NOT walked in my shoes. I never realized until I started going through this how much work it really would be, but I wouldn't change a thing!!
I'm thankful for this forum. Today at work, this lady who wouldn't give me the time of day when I was heavy was all up in my business today. I don't have time for those type of people. My personality hasn't changed one bit. She used to be pretty thin and wore skinny jeans, now she has since packed on a bunch of weight. I don't treat her any different.
