Thanks Rhonda! It took a lot of courage for me to take these pictures!

Well, I finally broke down and had my daughter take some new pictures of me. They aren't the best (I am a horrible picture taker) but I wanted you all to see a face to go along with the name. The before pictures are the only 2 I have but you can get an idea . Just click on the link below: http://www.picturetrail.com/kimweightloss Also, just to give you an idea of inches lost: hips: started at 65 inches and now at 40 inches waist: started at 49 inches and now at 34 inches thighs: started at 34 inches and now at 21 inches arms: started at 18 inches and now at 12 inches breast: started at 56 inches and now at 35 inches Have a great day!

When you arise in the morning, give thanks for the morning light, for your life and strength. Give thanks for your food, and the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies with yourself. - Te****eh, Shawnee Chief ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It is only by going through difficulties that we become strong. By opening up to love when we are facing such trials we can understand that we are not alone but have the unconditional support that we need from angels. - Margaret Neylon

Happy Halloween to you too! My daughter is very excited! Trick or Treating in the City is really neat because we don't have to go outside just up and down the stairs (better exercise than the elevators!) in our residential building to those apts who signed up to give out candy! How are you doing toward your plastic surgery goal? I'm 19.5 pounds away. Things are definitely slowing down; I've only lost 6.5 pounds so far this month but that's okay I knew the slowdown was coming. If I can manage at least 10 this month then I'll be a happy camper! Have a great day!! Kim 347/174.5/???
