This is, to me, the most inspiring thread on all of Susan's Place! Each time I return I'm astounded and heartened by EVERYONE'S progress. I don't leave enough feedback,
and I'm sorry, but that's because I feel I tend to sound like a broken record. Anyhoo, God bless all of you beautiful women. Mira

This first photo is of a very unhappy, fat, habitually drunken male impersonator. Approx. 2010, one year pre- third suicide attempt.

This one is me, taken this month. I hope the difference in the way I feel is reflected in the photos. 27+ mo. living full time!
I think of myself now as a happy, loving, hopefully thoughtful, caring woman, daughter and S.O. to a man I love very deeply.
