I wish you success in your endeavor. I know how difficult it is for me to like try to loose 20 lbs. You start off with a good deal of enthusiasim and then it is hard to remain committed over a span of time.
You seem like a really nice person and I know it is difficult to have the extra weight prevent you from doing and being what you want.
Lots of prayer and love for you success now and in the future.

I can't tell you how much I admire you. I started a diet in October with about 80 lbs. I would like to lose and I felt so overwhelmed. I have lost 20 lbs. and am bored and tired with dieting I can't imagine how overwhelmed you felt with the task at hand.
My 21 year old daughter thinks you are beautiful and we can't wait to see you thin and healthy.
You go girl!!!
God bless you and help you be as helthy as you are beatiful, sweet,
and so loving to the people in your life. Your friends are so lucky
to have you in their life. I admire how hard you are trying to get healthy. I am having a hard time losing 40 lbs. I am staying inspired by watching and thinking about you. Good luck on becoming the helthy weight you want to be.
good luck and God bless
