Happy 5th of July!!!! MY PERSONAL INDEPENDENCE DAY!

How cool!  You are such an inspiration to us and I am so glad you stay involved with weight wise.  You are such a great example to the rest of us of what we hope to be.

Girl I am so proud of you!!!!! You are such a great person to have around, and anyone should feel lucky to know you!! I can't wait until I get there, and we can look back on the "old days lol. You are awesome!

CONGRATS RUTH ON YOUR AMAZING ACCOMPLISHMENTS. YOU ARE SUCH AN INSPIRATION TO ME AND THE REST OF US WLS PEOPLE ON THIS SITE. I CAN ONLY HOPE AND PRAY THAT I WILL BE AS SUCCESSFUL AS YOU HAVE BEEN. I WISH I LIVED CLOSER SO I COULD JOIN THE MEET AND GREETS WITH ALL OF YOU, YOU ALL HAVE NO IDEA HOW MANY LAUGHS AND SMILES YOU HAVE PUT ON MY FACE. THANKS FOR ALL THE INCOURAGING WORDS OF WISDOM AND HAPPY SURGIVERSARY GIRL YOU DESERVE A HUGE PARTY.

Happy Happy Happy Surgiversary!  You are doing so well-shrinking in girth and growing in beauty and life!

Congratulations Ruth!!!! I'm so happy for you!!! Happy Surgiversary!!! : )

HAPPY SURGIVERSARY.....You've come a long way in two years. Just seems like a few weeks ago that you had surgery.I'm proud of you.

Congratulations girlfriend!  You have been such an inspiration to me personally I know and to others as well.  It's amazing what we find when we get down to our "real" self minus those we loose when we loose the extra weight.  You're a great person and I'm so glad you're one of my new friends!  Debbie
