Thanks Hon....You & many others here have inspired me beyond measure. I am so greatful for this site and all of you!  Merry Christmas!  HUGS  Jeanine

HEY JEANINE,           I KNOW THOSE WOWS JUST GET BETTER AND BETTER... WE HERE SURE CAN RELATE TO THAT....TO ME, JUST BEING ABLE TO MOVE WITHOUT HEAVING AND A HOING WAS A BLESSING IN ITSELF... IT WAS SUCH A DAILY STRUGGLE JUST GETTING UP AND DOING SMALL THINGS WITHOUT GIVING TOTALLY OUT... NOW I DONT EVEN CARE WHERE I PART AT,. YOU WILL SEE... GETS SWEETER WITH TIME.... FUNNY... I PICTURE YOU WALKING AROUND LIKE AMY WHINEHOUSE WITH SOMETHING STUCK UP YOUR NOSE LOL...SORRY... NOT THE BAD STUFF THOUGH LOL... HUGS MARGE

LOL...OK who the heck is Amy Whinehouse?  I still feel tired easily but NOTHING like when we moved in Sept. Geez Louise...I packed one box and had to sit down, totally out of breath with everything I attempted to do and there was so much to be done..I felt so handicapped!  I do have some arthritis..hoepfully that gets better with time, but I get up out of a chair and still feel old and weary.  Guess I have to remind myself I still have way too much weight on my bones and joints. I absolutely love "The Biggest Loser" and saw the grand finale last night. I have watched ever show since the beginning...I would sit and dream of myself losing a ton of weight and feeling proud, as I sat there munching thru the whole show on chips or ice cream etc.  Last night, I had tears in my eyes because I now know that the dream is not just that...its reality and I will soon be unrecognizable to friends I haven't seen in a long time. What a feeling!  HUGS...Jeanine

HEY JEANINE,

       FIRST OFF AMY WHINEHOUSE IS A OVERSEAS SINGING HEFFER WITH A COKE PROBLEM LOL... THE PAPARAZZI TOOK PICS OF HER THE OTHER DAY WITH COKE HANGING OUT HER NOSE... I READ WAY TO MUCH TMZ LOL.... AND I WATCHED THE BIGGEST LOSER ALSO AND WAS SO HAPPY THE TWINS WON... HOW COOL WAS THAT? AND IT DOES GET TO YA... YOU KNOW HOW THEY FEEL FOR SURE... HUGS MARGE

LOL...yeah I probably do look like her with the dang tissues hangin out my nose! LOL  I thought Julie on Biggest Loser looked absolutely amazing!!  She had quite the butt & hips on her. Also, Amy...the one who switched to Jillian for a trainer...she looked incredible.  God, how I long to have a transformation like that. I know its coming & I am closer than I have ever been....I can see the rainbow at the end of the path...thats what WLS does for ya!  Have a good day!  HUGS  Jeanine

This is me doing the happy dance for you -> I remember how great it felt to be able to bend over and to sleep on my tummy - I'm super pleased for you that you've crossed those bridges!!!  You are looking great.  I know it's hard to see the changes when you look in the mirror, probably because you look every day (I know I did).  I didn't really start to see a difference until I'd lost about 100 pounds, although I felt great much sooner than that.  Plus my pants and underwear started to fall off - a definite confirmation that I was shrinking.   A great big {{{{{HUG}}}}} to you and an 'atta girl for your great attitude Kellie

Thank you so much for your sweet words of praise.  Its amazing how we cannot visualize ourselves as thinner. They say the mirror doesn't lie, but dang.....it messes with heavy people's heads!  True or true? LOL  Regardless of what I see or think I see, the scale and the clothes tell it all.  I love your dance!   Just knowing I can accomplish what those before me have done is such a high for someone who always felt I couldn't. You're the best!  HUGS   Jeanine

I remember only being able to wear slip on's like Clogs just incase no one was here at home to help me and ite my shoes. Now I can wear any shoes. Isn't it great all the things we never thought that we could do we can. Jeanine you are doing good. Pam

Thanks Pam...I appreciate the words of encouragement. Hope you are doing better these days!  HUGS  Jeanine

Congratulations! I love WOW moments and your looking great!
