You look fantastic, love to see success stories, trying to keep a positive mental state prior to surgery...the only difference between fear and faith is where we put our focus...I am choosing to focus on all the positive successes I see here....

You look awesome. One of my greatest fears is that I will be shaped awkwardly, with a big head. :-)

Can I ask a question, you look about the same size that I am starting at. My arms are big also do you have a lot of extra skin on them or were you able to exercise it away?

hi Carol, exercise it away is not possible when i been overweight for 28 years. yes i have the loose skin but it does not bother me at all. It is temporary because i know i will have skin removal surgery in future. To feel this good and be eating healthy is the #1 goal i have. My weight and body is image is second thought. Because who i am as person is inside me. And cloths can hide everything anyways. Having a healthy life style is worth everything. I am a cancer surviver and i know now i have a even greater chance for a longer life.

Hi Tarver, Yes i also did same thing before surgery! I am a christian and i know my faith help see me through every bit of it. The Dr even said my healing process was faster then most. i was so desperate for this life change. No matter what, i am all in! For me it was not about the weight loss as it was about being healthy. I survived cancer two year ago and am in high range for another cancer, along with being 150 lbs overweight increases my chances even more and the newest addition was type 2 diabetes. This was the best decision i ever made! I am now diabetics free, off all meds and all my reports came back and i am cancer free still. I feel good! I am going to make this next half of my life fun, active, and amazing! Im 45yrs old going on 30! Blessing to you on your journey!
