Wow
I really enjoyed reading your success story. You truly are a success and your pictures are amazing. Yes, your right kids can be truly cruel and sometimes the wounds are hard to forget. I have ALWAYS had the memories of my childhood FAT days. I find know when i look in the mirror that i still see a chubby me. Even when others say i look great. Well anyway you look great and keep up the good work . Also, what kind of training do you do and do you weightlift?

I can hardly wait until one of those snooty private school kids sees you on TV and says "That's funny! I went to school with someone of that name. It couldn't be HER!"
Revenge is sweeter than any dessert.

Thanks everybody for the kind words. No, I'm not working in TV anymore. I switched to radio. It is a lot more forgiving...trust me. I have always loved music, so I love what I do.
Yes, kids can be cruel. When I was 22, a councelor did help me remember and get over that pain of being teased. I haven't seen any of those snooty kids from elementary school. But my 5 year high school reunion was in 2002. I was a size 12/13...still much smaller than my 16/18 I was in highschool. Many people were shocked. I didn't have many enemies then, but it was still nice to turn heads and get noticed, and this time, it wasn't because I was being the life of the party.

That was a great story. I am so proud of you. I hope that I will lose 50lbs just as you did. That was such an inspiration to me. I was also the "Fat Kid" in school. And people would tease me and I would feel so horrible inside. These are usually the people who end up looking worse than you in the later years!lol!
