UPDATED SOUTH CAROLINA WEIGHT LOSS & UPCOMING SURGERY LIST

Well South Carolina you continue to amaze me. In the effort of getting healthy we're taking no prisoners!!! Even more important we continue to encourage, uplift, motivate, share, volunteer our time, and sprinkle love and hope where needed. We have travelled our journeys with grace, dignity, and at times with much needed humour. So South Carolina once again I applaud you!!! For those of you who lurk, we hope that we are able to pass on what we've learned thus far. Remember we are "ALL" in this together, and each day we arrive a little further down our chosen paths. Embrace each goal, each wow moment, and every ounce loss as the blessings they truly are. As always, when one is sharing...there is HOPE for another!!! Keep on travelling those journeys, keep us posted as you do, and lets see where we all are next month.
