Wow, congratulations! You look great. I see you've lost 172 pounds, did you lose that all in a year? I have 165 to lose, and I'm feeling kind of overwhelmed, but you have inspired me!

Your story is very inspiring. I'm so glad you posted it. I"m having my surgery next Thursday and I have a lot to lose as well. Thanks again for posting it and you look absolutely amazing. Congrats your success!

Chancie,

You are my hero lady!!! Sometimes when I see the success of others and I compare it to what I have to do and the thing that is always hard is that I have to lose soooooo much weight and I can't imagine being able to do it, but you are my role model!!!! Keep on loving life and know that you have been an inspiration.

Thanks!

I have to say thank you all for the kind words!!

I also wanted to comment that I never thought of myself as a "role model"... but wantd to share my experience with you all.

Losing 50 pounds and 100 pounds seems daunting when we first start out... but I can understand some of your fears when you think of losing 150 to 200 pounds.

I had all those fears... I thought maybe this surgery won't work for me...thats ALOT of weight to lose!

But it did!!

I didn't make "goal".. but thats ok.. I am still working my tool...... it's slow going now, but I am healthier and feel better than I ever have.

It can be done, and if I can help anyone in anyway. feel free to message me!

Big HUGS to all of you for such great support!!!
