    Thanks y'all. Harribeau, that is the biggest compliment I think I can ever get---to be called an ATHLETE. I believe you have it in you. I think we all do if we dig for it.

    This is great! Just a regular Jane who made the decision to put one foot in front of the other and to make better decisions for her health. So glad I stopped in to read this! :) And who's to say that the loose skin won't catch up with you? Hey, I can send positive thoughts that way!! :)

    You are truly an inspiration! Thank you...I was ready to give up and deal with being big the rest of my life. You gave me hope to keep moving even if the scale isn't this journey is worth seeing til the end.
