I loved your story and found it very inspiring. You see, 6 months ago my husband at age 52 suffered a massive stroke and cerebral hemorrhage. I read him your story for inspiration. He has always battled weight issues and actually lost and kept off over a 100lbs 3 years ago. So it was a frustrating blow when he suffered the stroke. Fortunately the stroke did not leave him physically impaired, he has memory loss and some vision loss. Luckily we are still able to cycle together. Congratulations on your accomplishments. Stories like yours really inspire us.
