    Thank you so much Tru. Every time I see the photo I can't believe it's me I havn't been this weight in over 20 yrs. Iv'e aged so I've never seen this woman before.
    Carrie you look great you look very different also. Do you feel this way too?

    I like that we can talk like this. I find people around me don't quite get how important this is to me.(us)

    The only easy way to lose weight is to eat whatever you like as long as you don't swallow it.

    I do feel the same way!!! When I walk by a mirror all I can do is smile and take a second look without cringing. :-)

    For the newbies to this thread. I started at 209 lb 10 months ago as of this morning I am 180 lb. I count calories, I have done with the help of all the wonderful people on this thread. We have become family through no family I ever knew. We encourage each other to go on when we want to give up. This is a warm loving group, I am proud to call them my friends.

    Today I treated myself to a facial. It was my own mixed up stuff of yogut,raspberry jam(I wanted fruit in it) oatmeal and molasses. I left it on for 10 minutes rinsed splashed my face with apple cider vinegar and water. let it drip dry to hydrate (SP?) my skin when it dried I mixed olive oil and vit e and massaged a few drops in with warm water. The wrinkles don't seem as bad and my face fells like a baby butt.

    the biggest loser for Nov with a weigh loss of 11.2 lb is bronald................congrats you did a great job.


    Bonnie is in Canada if anyone will have a problem sending to her please let me know as I will try and work something out. I will have to wait for DS to come homes for mine to be sent so maybe we could send the FQ along with postage to 1 person and they could send it all to her. What do you guys think?
