Congratulations on four years of recovery and renewal! You have been so very generous in sharing your experiences and your truth. I can never thank you enough for all of the help and encouragement that you have given me.
I am so like you -- my abuse of food was imprisoning me and killing me. I take this so very, very seriously because I've BTDT and got my second chance (well, my 2nd+++++++++ chance??) and cannot afford to blow this one. Maybe not all who've read your message have been in that place, but I have.

You are THE BEST!!
I love the pic of you out on the water with the Oracle team--that must have been incredibly exciting. I was on the edge of my sea****ching on TV--being out on the water in a choppy Zodiak (?) must have been thrilling. My hubby's office is on the Embarcadero so he was able to watch all the prep of those amazing boats from the beginning.
I digress! You are such an important part of OH. Thank you for all you do.
