To Justin,
I live in Bradford now but was originally born and raised in San Francisco Bay area in CA. I do not know you at all, but I have seen you here and there. To watch you change, watch your young body shrink, right before all of this towns’ eyes to see, has been truly an astonishing sight. I understand you are a BELIEVER. I am too. You are a living testimony to Gods’ WORD to us to “be ye transformed”. You should be extremely proud of yourself. Never listen to the cruel remarks of others. They are most likely “unsaved” individuals who are “of the world”. Alot of times they are jeolous and realize that you have accomplished something far greater than they can imagine for themselves. Remember …Hurt People, hurt people. Be proud of yourself. Let God be glorified through you. What Jesus went through at Calvary has set each one of us FREE !! p.s. ( you must feel good now, but just imagine how our heavenly bodies will feel when we go into eternity).
you have no idea what an inspiration you are to me to be a better person.
I honestly think your weight loss is an amazing story, but even if you were 1000 pounds, it wouldn’t change the fact that you have truly been one of the best friends I’ve ever had.
Thank you for the encouraging words Kim. I seriously forgive all the people who slammed me, and called me fat. No lie, it did hurt, but I believe forgiveness is the ultimate answer. =) Pray for the people who poke fun, and decide to say hurtful comments. We are the light of the world right? =) Thanks for the comment!
what an awesome testimony as you are a true inspiration. Not only to lose weight and to be healthy but to also develop and grow in a relationship with christ. God Bless you and best of all to you.
I read about you in the Olean Times Herald with amazement. You are truly an inspiration for us all. You go Justin and thanks for sharing your success. Amy
