Blessed!!

Well Guys, With God's help, my family and of course of my surgeon, I made it. I have just joined the centery club with 100 pounds gone!!! I said I have lost exactly 100 pounds!!!! Just got back from Disney World and did not have to turn side ways to get through the turn-tiles (sp) and that is a blessing all by itself. I was vacationing at Disney for one whole week. I took lots of pictures and I will get them up in the next few days or so. I am also under 200 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did you hear that!!!!!!!!! I even raced my daughter to the car doors and won for the first time in two years!!! My scales are saying 194 pounds and I can see for the first time a new day and a new life. Last night I spent New Year's Eve at church, as I always do, but this time I had a personal testimony. I did not mention the surgery, but thanked God for "good health and strength." God already knows what I went through! I also thanked him for wonderful supporters like you. (Called you my distant friends) If you have not done it already today, just reflect on all of the things that you went through in May of 2005 and the entire year and look at you now. For that, we are all BLESSED! L. Rice 294/194/165

Congrats to you! What a wonderful blessing. Sounds like you had a ball at Disney World. We were there in February and I made a promise that next time I'd be much thinner...and I'm already 85 pounds lighter. Ana
