Oh Ree- I hope you know how thrilled I am for you. You have worked so hard for this and yes, Myrtle has been a trooper. But good health is our primary goal ( as oldies) and you are well on your way. I am so very thrilled for you!

Thank you so much Judy!  I really appreciate all the support and encouragement you've given so generously.  Finding health after being told I probably wouldn't make it to 65 is overwhelming and humbling.  The gratitude I have for this.........well, I just don't have adequate words.  Having the amazing people here and on MFP have given me wings. 

Now I have to get to work to try to be as successful as you are!  Keep up the great job you've done!

Hugs,

Ree

P.S. As I told Paula, we are NOT "oldies"  -- we are recycled teenagers!!  LOL

Tina!  Thank you for all your wonderful encouragement.  You have made this ride more enjoyable each day. 

And I'm watching you!  You're going to pass me like a speeding bullet train with your outstanding weight loss!  I'm happy for you!  It's so good to see my lovely friends succeed!

Hugs,

Ree

Thank you! 

I wish you well with your results.  Never would I have thought I'd look forward to getting stabbed with a needle and have blood taken, but I do now!  If we stay on plan and work our sleeves, I'm convinced we will see positive results with our labs.

Ree - I'm so happy for you!! I know the feeling completely! I went into this journey with the same goals, to get rid of my comorbids and have happily accomplished that like you. I want to be around for my grandson for a long long time and like you I now believe that I will be. This place, and people like you, definitely rock!! Thanks for sharing and I love reading your posts!
