Congrats Bronda, isn't it a great feeling!!!! Tammy

Not only am I forty four today, but this is my 8 month anniversary from wls... Last year at this time, I was hating myself and what I had become. I made myself a promise that I would be a healthier slimmer person. I am so proud of myself for succeeding. This year I am making myself a promise that on my 45th I will be at goal which is 135-145 lbs. God willing I shall be there... I just wanted to share something exciting with my fellow wls friends. Last week was Spring break, and we took the kids to Gatlinburg, TN. We went to Dollywood, and I walked the whole park as though I were a teen. I could fit and ride rides I have not been on since High School! Kelli and I went to Girl Scout camp this weekend..I stood on my feet for 12 hours, cooking meals for 240 girls. Not only was I NOT TIRED/EXHAUSTED - I had energy to keep going that evening! I wanted to say, despite it all, it was worth it! God is Good- We have all been blessed with the miracle of a second chance! Much Denise

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!! You've done so well! Keep up the good work, and thanks for the advice! Dawn
