    Steve, keep up the good work. I am so really proud of you. I have just lost 50 lbs myself and I know it is not easy. I am proud of your determination and drive. My prayers are with you and I know you will be an inspiration to many

    You keep it up! You are my new inspiration! I was actually on the treadmill when I saw you on t.v.! I’m pulling for you all the way from here in Wyoming! Please take care of yourself and just look at it as one step in front of the other and one little distance at a time and before you know it, you’ll be in New York! Stay strong and you and your family are in my prayers.
