    Wednesday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench! ~ JudyAnne

Well its been a long time since i have posted! I am now a year and a half out. I feel really good and for the most part am maintaining my weight. I did put on a few pounds and am still working to get them all off. On July 25th I had surgery to remove the extra skin on my belly. It was great and my cloths fit so much better!
