    Tami, I've said it before and I'll say it forever - you are the best! I was so impressed a few weeks ago when you posted that you were only two pounds away from goal and - semi-jokingly - said you were willing to wait two months to lose it. You could even see a silver lining - that it would exactly two years you've been working on your weight loss.

    I thought to myself - if she can work so hard for two years and still have the patience to wait another two months, even have the ability to laugh about it, then so can I and so will I! I read all your old posts and your blog where you wrote about how hard it was to continue when you already looked so good and how determined you were to reach the day when you could say "I have no more weight to lose."

    And now that day is here. I am so happy for you, I know you must just be floating in air with happiness. That it happened before your Today show appearance is great icing on that cake!

    I hope the happiness sinks in - down to the depths of your heart and chases out all the old feel-bad feelings about being fat. You never have to feel those feelings again - you are free! You can step forward into a lifetime of "I am who I want to be, I am living the life I want to have!"

    Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you for being the inspiration for all of us! You deserve every minute of happiness!

    Tami, congratulations! And you did it in a healthy way too. Good for you. Wish I could watch the show but if it's 10:30 in the morning, I'm out of luck. Maybe I can find it on the web. So proud of you. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
