The video below features Nancy. It’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!!

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.
