 <description>&lt;p class=&quot;style1&quot;&gt; The video below features Nancy. It&amp;rsquo;s a truly inspirational story about a woman who lost 500lbs without surgery. Nancy discovered the support of friends she found online, for motivation and encouragement, to lose a half a ton. She went from having no life to being all about life. Congratulations, Nancy!! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;style1&quot;&gt; Nancy is a great example of the power that friends and family, who are far away, can be. Having friends in an on-line weight loss social community can be equal to, if not, more powerful than somebody in your own physical surroundings. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;style1&quot;&gt; She credits her Internet friends with saving her life. Listen to her story. &lt;/p&gt;
