You are my role model!

Ok...I love reading everyone's wow moments, so here is one of my own.  Actually two...

My brother asked me if I would be interested in being set up with his friend ("He's looking for a new woman!" LOL...great, just what I want to be is someone's replacement "woman").  My brother has never set me up with one of his friends, so I guess I have made it to "set up-able" status LOL

The other was yesterday.  I ran into the manager of our office building in the hall. She told me it was fate that she saw me....she started a new weight loss program and was struggling and wanted MY advice...that I am her role model!  She kept telling me how skinny I have become (yes, I gave her a referrals to an eye doctor, cause I am NOT skinny LOL)  and how proud she was of me for "keeping it up" for so long.  My co-workers often come to me for advice too, and it always blows my mind that anyone would be asking me for advice on weight and fitness.

you should not be shocked your determination always inspires me.
You are not a whiner you get up and you do something. IT always shocks me when people say " wow you are sticking to it" part of me thinks like " yeah like i really have a choice to take a break from it"

Enjoy the compliments you are skinny LOL

Congrats on both!

And my dear you are looking FAB these days so she should look up to you! Thank and you could kick her ass if she doesn't! lol

Keep up the great work!

I know how much I value your advice and opinion on this whole journey so it doesn't surprise me that someone else is asking for your assistance and advice - and honestly isn't it all about eating healthy now and watching portions, etc. - something anyone can apply whether or not they've had WLS. So I say go for it!

And hey, hope the set-up works out - you are looking fabulous and obviously your own brother is seeing it now (sometimes family is the last to acknowledge it) - and I'm guessing that between the weight loss and new karate lessons you can kick his butt but good!

Fantastic wow moments - enjoy!!

What awesome WOW moments! 

Keep us updated on the set up you know we love to hear that stuff! 

As for the role model can you have a better compliment! 

Love you HG!

You rock

You are a role model!  You are brave, strong and just a beautiful person - can't think of a better role model!

Heather, you ROCK!  And, YES, I can easily believe people see you and consider you as a role model because YOU ARE A ROLE MODEL for many of us!!!!!!!

Hi Heather

First - I love your new avatar.

Second- Yes, you are a role model and will continue to be one.  You worked so hard to get to where you are and certainly have been an inspiration for all of us, too.

Third - hope the girls are doing well.
