I can't express how much you have inspired me. You look awesome! I love the overlay, it really does show how far you have come. Congrats on the new love also, I thinks it's great that you and your ex are really great friends.

thanks! And yes..my soon to be ex and I are best friends.  We both are mature enough to know that our marriage wasn't working and are in agreement with everything as far as the divorce goes.  I'm sad that it ended in divorce, but I am also very happy now as well..and looking forward to everything life has in store for me..

 Thank you for the inspiration, you look marvelous!  I have so much to lose and it's nice to see that it can be done.  Sometimes, I feel like I cant relate to some of the people here with a hundred or less to lose.  It makes me doubt myself and my surgery.  But I know we all need support in our journey, and I dont begrudge anyone their struggles, I fully support others, just feel like an outlier or fringer oftentimes.  Anyway, thank you aain for sharing.  You look so great! 

Regina.  Ready to live again.

thank you..and that is exactly why i still post pictures.  I want to motivate those around the same starting weight as myself.  I know I'm not 130 lbs..but you don't have to be that weight to feel great..and look great.  I never could relate to those with 100 lbs to lose either.  When you have so much to lose, it feels overwhelming..just know it can be done..just take it one day at a time..and you'll get there!!

do a search for the bmi over 50 forum. I go there too.  On my page I hit 'forums', then 'more' under 'weight loss related', then bmi over 50 is the second on the list.
