      I love, I love, I love my Calendar Girl!

That's right--it's Paclap calendar time again! For those who don't know, Paclap (John Rabkin's office) publishes a gorgeous, full-color calendar every year. Gracing its pages are just some of their success stories--people who have regained their health and life.

It includes a "before" shot of each person and then a fabulous new one that demonstrates where they are today, a few years out from surgery. An absolute inspiration piece! (To request a calendar, call 888-848-8446.)

Imagine my delight when I opened this year's calendar and who is smiling her gorgeous smile up at me, but our very own Starry1st!!! She is January, "starting the year off fine," as Neil Sedaka says.

And I'd like to give a shout-out to the photographer, Scubagirl. The new shot is lovely. Here are the pics they used in the calendar--I weaseled them out of Dawn!

Today, 128 pounds lighter, two years after her DS:



Way to go, Dawn! This new chapter of your life really agrees with you! Thanks for continuing to "pay it forward" to people seeking revisions to the DS.
