One year thanks and pics

You honestly look like a completely different person!  Do people not recognize you?

Congrats on such a great success!  Keep up the good work!

Hi Tessy!  Thank you so much!  I get people not recognizing me at least once a week, which is still pretty weird for me.  Last month, my husband and I were in WalMart, and we split up to make our shopping trip go faster.  I was standing in an isle, pricing some items, when my cell phone went off with a text message from my husband, asking me where I was.  Right after the phone rang, I heard a VERY familiar laugh.  I looked up, and it was my husband...standing just down the isle from me.  My own husband didn't even recognize me!

What a wonderful tribute to those who went before and Dr. Stewart.  Your last picture is wonderful and I smile every time I look at it.  I wish you and your family many, many years of good health and happiness.  Congratulations! 

Thank you, Esther!  I am happier than I've ever been, in my whole life.  Honest to God.  I used to be a very angry person, with a chip the size of Texas residing squarely on my shoulder.  I realize now, that I stepped on a lot of toes in my past, but never recognized it.  Now to figure out how to heal the hurt I caused.....no clue where to start with that.  Oy!

I just teared up looking at your after pictures because you are absolutely glowing and look so happy. 

Shavonne, no crying....don't do it or I'll start crying too!
