I'm a winner!

Hi everyone! I hope you're all having a great weekend ... I sure am! I don't know if anyone has heard of the weightloss support group called TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly). I have belonged for years and they even allow weight loss surgery patients to belong as well, which worked out great for me after surgery, I could still participate! Anyway, they put everyone into weight Divisions based on their weight range. And they have a special Division for people who've undergone weight loss surgery. This weekend they were having State Recognition Day where all TOPS members from Oregon congregate. And, I received the honor of winning 1st place women's Division winner for the entire state of Oregon for 2006 for the highest amount of weight lost! I was so excited and dang proud! I got to march up on stage with a special sash and they gave me a plaque. I was truly honored! And, the best part was that I got to tell everyone about my surgery and how blessed I've been. It was a great experience! Deanna
