Holy Cow....I almost missed my 3rd surgiversary!!

Congratulations on your 3 Year Surgiversary!!!

You have done a wonderful job maintaining your weight. I hope I can follow in your footsteps and do as well!!

You are a ray of sunshine to so many of us here on OFF.

Love to you....connie d

Aloha Connie and thank you for your kind words. YOU are a total inspiration to me!! I wish I had half of your strength of character......you are a survivor! Sometimes I am more like the proverbial "ostrich with her head in the sand." Ha!

Aloha nui loa,

Hello my sweet sister Karen. I am so blessed to have you in my life. You are not only a sweet, caring and loving person but as so many have said before me, you are the voice of reason in such a uncertain world.

I have many wishes for you, dear one, such as happiness, health and a continued blessed life. You have brought so much into my life and for that I am eternally grateful. Thank you for just being you and please never forget how special you are to so many of us.

My loves and big old hugs go to you...I hope that you feel them over the miles.

Aloha dear Brenda.....You always have so much love and encouragement for everyone, even when your own life is a struggle. I admire you so much for that, and I thank you so much for always making me feel good....even when life is sometimes getting to me.

I hope your life is getting better every day......I do worry about you.

Aloha nui loa,

Maui Karen

Aloha, Karen:

What a great journey! Wow, needing to gain a few pounds ... I have 10 I need to lose ... I'll give them to you! These 10 keep finding me (although I know some is water retention but not all).

Stick around, we need your aloha spirit on the board.

Aloha sweet Eileen........You have done a GREAT job with keeping your weight off. If you only have 10 lbs. that you'd like to go away, I call that success!!

I'm very glad that you are a part of this little family.

Aloha nui loa,

Maui Karen

Congratulations Karen!  I look forward to reading your posts - you have been an inspiration to so many of us.  You have done so well.

I'm only three months behind you.  What a wonderful three years we have had!  These surgeries are such a blessing.
