    Talking Mattye Lee's Birthday Pics! Before and Now I...

    Hi everyone!

    First I want to share with you a pic of me when I was about 18 years old. Back then I weighed about 126 pounds...



    but then abuse and stress took their tolls, and at 36, I weighed in the neighborhood of 325 pounds. This is me on my wedding day to my wonderful, amazing hubster...



    over the course of the next 5 years, I lost down to 267.5, which was about this time last year at my hubster's graduation from UNT - shortly before I began my raw journey...I was 41 years old in this photo...



    and now today, high raw since 8/1/2007, at 42 years young and 185.6 pounds this morning!

    I feel fantastic, and I suddenly realized today that I am not longer "fat." I only have a small amount left to release, and it just floors me. I never thought this day would come...but I am so very glad that it has!
