Honored, Flattered, Proud!

That must have been some experience. Just don't forget us...we knew you when. LOL Congratulations~~ Diane   (May I have your autograph?)  

Hi Penny....um...oops...I mean Diane! Thanks for the post! I'll autograph a Panera napkin next month LOL. Where did your Avatar picture go? Did you shrink so much that we can't see you? Hugs, Karen

 Now you are really a celebrity!!  Don't forget your little sister when you make your first million in film and advertisements!! I am so extremely proud of you and your wonderful accomplishments.  I can't wait to be with you on the loser's bench. Love you, Ziggy

Thanks! Celebrity my Toosh! You'll be on the loser's bench before you know it....probably within a month or so. Time will fly by. Between you and Mom, I need a WLS-Vacation! Love, Karen

I was such a good girl keeping my mouth shut all day. You look so georgous, dahling! My hospital roomate and I had made our appointments @ the same time--we missed each other on the way out, and you were busy filming. But she called me later-she kept saying, over & over, that she couldn't believe you were ever overweight.

My angel's gonna be famous!

HAHAHA Karen. Well at least I know you're NOT a Yenta! I feel bad: i was just starting to talk to your roommate and they called me out. I left her abruptly. Have you join this website (if she's not already on it). She'll love it I think Thanks for the compliments; I feel good and oddly, until I look at the before and after photos, I have a hard time seeing the changes. Pictures help me to visualize it...the mirror lies! Talk to you soon....glad you survived the drain removal. It wasn't fun. I remember feeling faint for a few minutes after it was removed. It felt like an alien had jumped out of my tummy! Hugs, Karen

I cannot wait to see it!  You should be proud - you look amazing and put a lot of HARD work into changing your life!!!! What an EXCITING thing to do. hugs, Britt

Thanks, my Birthday-sis-gym-partner-almost-neighbor!! Amazing isn't it? So mu*****ommon and we met on this forum! You look truly amazing yourself. So much younger, gorgeous in every way. You were beatiful before you got off the gas station pump but now.....WOW. It's funny: we see each other at the gym without hair and makeup done, half asleep....yet every time I walk in and see you I'm amazed. And the new haircut was the icing on the cak: I love it. But more than that, you are a beautiful person INSIDE. So caring, concerned, genuine, giving, supportive....a great Mom and wife. And how you have a hot tamale bod !!! Keep up the good work! Let's look into tickets to a show for Dec. 28th !!! Hugs, Karen

Karen. Wow that is so. You are doing awsome  130lbs in less then a year amazing. I'm so gald that you got this opprotunity, It couldn't have happened to nicer person. I watch Big medicine every monday and will not tivo the comericals I will keep my eyes out for you. Sheila

Thanks for your kind words, Sheila! I'll keep everyone posted as to when it will be starting. The Producer said probably about 3 weeks. It has to be edited and approved by the Grand Muky Muck, Dr. Garber. I really, really hope that TV won't make me look 10 pounds heavier; it will depress me. All of you will need to remind me of that TV distortion if and when I get upset over it....so now you have an assignment! Hugs, Karen PS: you'll be a loser soon...I'm going out to buy another Bench! So many new Losers!
