08/21/03--Hello, everyone. Kuri here in a rare introspective mood. It's been almost a year to the day that I first created my profile. It's hard to believe it's been that long. So much has happened since then. I've lost 93 pounds, the equivalent of a seventh grader!! I've changed my hair, my clothes, my outlook... I've changed the physical me. I am still who I was, though. I still cry at Kleenex commercials. I still laugh at the show COPS, even though it is not a comedy. (Ya gotta laugh, though!!) I still dance in the livingroom in my underwear. I still talk to my children and worry about them. I still worry about getting older and all that could entail. I still shop for too many shoes!! I'm still me. I didn't know if this change in the physical me would greatly change the other parts of "me". I can say, a year after I began this journey, that I'm still me. I'm a diva, don't get me wrong!! I can strut with the best of 'em and I look GOOOOOD!!!! But I am still me... Thank you Creator... I am still me.

~*~I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY~*~ I said a prayer for you today And know God must have heard- I felt the answer in my heart Although He spoke no word I didn't ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn't mind, I asked Him to send treasures Of a far more lasting kind, I asked that He'd be near you At the start of each new day, To grant you health and blessings And friends to share your way. I asked for happiness for you In all things great and small, But it was for His loving care I prayed the most of all.

07/01/03--Hello all you current luzers and future luzers!! Kuri here with some more exciting news. I have, to date, lost 78 pounds!!! Yeah for me!! That is not really where I wanted to be, but it certainly beats where I was!! I'm staying positive even though the pounds have not been coming off as freely as before. I seem to have a pattern of plateau for about four weeks, drop 10-15 pounds for the next week and then plateau again. Oh well, whatever works for this wonderful body of mine is alright with me! I hope everyone else is well. I send blessings to you all wherever you are in your journey!! Happy luzing!! TTFN! Kuri, the true blue luzer!!
