NewSetOfCurves 1,553 Posted January 16, 2014 You are so very very welcome. We are all veterans of obesity. The battle scars we share are just a badge of honor of what sacrefice we have made in order to make ourselves healthier to prolong our lives for ourselves and our loved ones. You don't even look like the same person. Others have told me the same thing. Of course I am a 60 year old man not a beautiful flower that emerged like yourself. Never the less, we both have a great deal to be thankful for and your deserve all the credit due for your accomplishment. I hope that you are able to achieve every goal you have towards your weight loss journey. I was just lucky to get to she you share it with all of us. Sincerly, Mark Thomas Edmond Oklahoma If I could teach through this screen, I'd kiss you! You are 60 years young and you look absolutely fantastic! You've lost a lot and have come so far and you know get to enjoy a better quality of life because of it. And let me tell you something else...you hit the nail on the head...my skin, our skin, all of us with the extra skin should wear it like a badge if honor. It tells our story of defeat, struggle, overcoming and victory. I love how you worded that. Beautiful. Just like your compliments and no doubt your character. Thank you again Mark!

I am 3 wekks out and still have the thoughts of "is it real, is it possible?'' Seeing stories like yours is so wonderful. Congrats on all your life changes and hard work. So great for you and your family I remember looking at all the before and after pics less than a year ago and wondering the same thing. I couldn't fathom looking like some of the vet posters. But I'm near goal now, and even though I always felt fabulous and beautiful, I feel even better...like my insides match the outer part. Most of all I love the mobility and the ability to be active with my kids on a much greater scale. Thank you so much for the compliments and good luck on your journey! 2 finally on my way and Ariella reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everything you said is exactly why I went forward with the surgery. To feel the same on the outside as I do on the inside. Number one priority, to enjoy life to the fullest with my munchkins & hubby. To remain healthy physically and emotionally! You keep rockin' it out !!! Thank you for being a inspiration & positive voice! 1 NewSetOfCurves reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
