For the past 2 years, I've been on a weight loss journey. I could have gone the surgery route as I was over 350lbs. My hubby had great success with the surgery, but all the women I know that had it didn't have quite such dramatic success as the men I knew who had it.

I did/do work with my doctor. Changed my diet and began exercising. I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes last summer and have it now well controlled.

Well, I've now lost over 120lbs!!! I finally bought myself new clothes because all my pants started falling down and my shirts are like tents.

I used to hate photos of myself, especially if it was a body shot. (Please excuse the dirty mirror, it's clean now!) I'm feeling pretty good about my body now. I'm only half way through my journey. I still have 100lbs to go. But, I haven't had noticeable curves in forever! So here goes, a photo of just my body:
