My New Swim Suit Pics

I was going to go for a run this morning to get my heart pumping...but these pics took care of that!  You seriously look great. Congrats!

Look at you, Sexy Momma!!!!   You are looking great!!   Seems like I haven't seen any of my girlfriends in such a long time.......I need my fix!!  Miss ya...hugs, Patty

You look amazing!  You must be so proud!  Congrats, and thanks for the inspiration for the rest of us!

 For the year or two I've been lurking on this board,  you have inspired me and encouraged me.  Today, simply, you are my effing hero! You GO woman!!!!!! Thank you for sharing all of your journey with us.  That thin cream soup I had for dinner is feeling like gourmet now!!!!  Whoo hoo for interventions and hard, hard work!!!!!

That thin creamy soup is what started all this for me . I am telling you .. noting is beyond your reach . I am glad I have been an inspiration to you .  Remember I am here for you ,,Just reach out ..  Congrats !  Tink

You look  great Tink. Thanks for sharing your pictures with all of us. Gwen

Look at YOU!.  You go!  :)

Woweee! Those are some mighty fine pics!!!!! My daddy would kill me if I ever put pics like that out in the internet!   He would say, "Rosie,  just because ya can don't mean you should!  Y'don't know who is lookin at ya and thinking evil things about ya!"   (my family are very security conscious)  Power to ya for being so brave! Rosie

My Daddy is Dead and so is my Mother , and ya know what .. if people wanna think evil things.. hey it is on them ... not me ...   My children have seen them , even my Granbabies have seen them .. and they all tell me how great I look .. I look far better now than I did 4 years ago .. a grey pasty white .. almost dead look.   So .. if anyone wants to use them ,. ,. Hey .. go for it .  I have nothing to hide and I am very proud of my body and all that it has underwent in the last 4 years.  I know you are new to the boards, and you may not know of all of my struggles and health issues ., neither here nor there . But I can tell you this .  I am not brave , as It never crossed my mind , as I am secure in all I am .. and who I am .  but hey .. my family does not have security issues .. or security conscious.. And we learned early out that your Daddy is a high profile figure .. and I am sure if that is the case , pics like mine could hurt him .. or having a daughter with my struggles, and willingness to share my story .. could help .. who knows .,.. I guess we will never know.  Thanks for the complement though  Rosie .. it is Duly Noted .  Natalie

Now you know I didn't mean this the way you are takin it - I surely don't know all your personal stuff, and it doesn't matter in this case.  I was actually admiring yer nerve and audacity!  Stalkers are everywhere!  Oh I am sure pics like this would humiliate ma daddy - they might haunt him for many years - he would be so ashamed of me and I never want to disappoint him or my family - ever. I am sure he was not wild about me bein over 400lbs but he never said anythin that would hurt me and never showed any kind of nastiness or said mean things to me. But I would also never go public with my story in case it brings too much attention to my family.. I am really proud of myself and what I have done too - so is my family and kids- I just would not broadcast it all over the Internet... you have the freedom to do that - you are lucky.... An just for the record - I lost my Mom to cancer when I was 12 in a horrble slow death. My daddy married again when I was 15 to the sweetest step mommy I could ever ask for. I love her to death - we are a very close family - even if not a real normal one...ha ha ha! Rosie
