OMG, Stacy, Don't remind me !!! what are you doing Resurrecting this old post? Those pictures are getting very hard for me to look at now days.

  But Thanks, Stacy. Just you wait your going to be amazing, I see a huge change already, You just aren't noticing it as much as we are.

  Love and hugs and yes that awkward sway, Roxy

I missed this thread back when it was fresh. OMG WOW!

I did too, Cindy, and Roxy I don't think you realize how this works.  You can't just post a picture of some male relative. 
Anyways, congratulations.  You look great.

Sorry, Roxy. I was looking through all your posts looking for that picture to show Melissa and I couldn't help commenting on it. I think you have made one of the most miraculous transformations that I have seen that didn't involve a surgeon!  :-) 

Love ya!

Thanks for the post and the reminder that it's never to late to be true to ourselves and that the truth, however difficult to realize, is always beautiful.

I hadn't seen this before - the me at 48 who's just starting down this road is grateful for the encouragement (and is cutting out the comfort foods - getting more of my comfort from authenticity instead...) xx

WOW!  Erocse, when I read this post and I saw teh before and after picture I said to myself WOW,  that is great, it is great the way you look and that you are much happier but I think most of all because youro wife is standing by you, I think that is the best afirmation of vows " for better or for worse, sickness and health, till death do us part"  I hope only the very best for you and your wife you are both lovely people.  Aloha from Hawaii.
