Good Morning All, I can't tell you how excited I was to see everyone last night!!! I don't know any of the new people, however it was nice to meet you all!!! For me the highlight of my night was seeing how WONDERFUL Susaan looks, how WONDERFUL Dawn looks and how WONDERFUL Kylie looks although she is ALL baby!!! For those original members, I can't even remember what we used to look like way back during Applebee's, but all I know is that this has been a fantastic year!!! AND Britt looks AWESOME!!! even after just having surgery last week!!! Boy what a YEAR!!!- BARB- I missed you last night as well as Cheryl. I hope you both are doing well!!

WELL, WE JUST HAVE TO SAY THAT YOU LOOKED ABSOLUTELY STUNNING LAST NIGHT, MS TOWANA ... DRESSED UP SO NICELY & I LOVE YOUR HAIR NOW THAT YOU ARE FLUFFING IT UP ... IT REALLY SOFTENS & FRAMES YOUR FACE BEAUTIFULLY. OH MY GOSHHHH, ONLY 2 WEEKS TILL YOUR TUMMY TUCK. I DON'T REMEMBER, ARE YOU HAVING THE MUSCLES TIGHTENED AS WELL OR JUST THE SKIN REMOVED? I AGREE, EVERYONE LOOKED GREAT LAST NIGHT & WE HAD QUITE A TURN OUT! BARB & CECIL SHOWED UP AFTER YOU LEFT & BARB IS FEELIN SOOOO MUCH BETTER, GETTING THINGS DONE AROUND HER HOME THAT SHE'S WANTED TO DO FOREVER ... JULIE P WAS THERE FOR THE 1st TIME IN AGES & IN A SIZE 6 (!!!) I THINK SHE SAID ... DAVID JOINED US & CHATTED FOR A WHILE PROMISING THAT HIS WIFE WILL COME NEXT WEEK, OR TO THE CHRISTMAS SHINDIG AT MS SUSANN'S HOUSE ON DEC 10th ... BECKY SHOWED OFF HER MUSCLES GOTTA ADMIT, HER ARMS REALLY DID SHOW MUSCLES; SHE WORKS OUT AT THE GYM TWICE A WEEK & WALKS EVERY DAY ... SANDY SHOWED US A PHONE VIDEO OF HER CHRISTMAS TREE & ROSE WAS TEASING BECKY THAT SHE NEEDED HER PROFILE UPDATED (BECKY IS GONNA CHANGE ROSE'S PASSWORD & SLAP HER FINGERS SO ROSE CAN'T GET IN & HMMMMM, HOW DO I SAY THIS? ... SO ROSE CAN'T MESS THINGS UP!!!) DONA & REX WERE THERE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN LIKE "FOREVER" & WE WERE ALL GLAD TO HEAR THAT DONA WAS FINALLY FEELING BETTER AFTER HER SURGERY FOR A COLLAPSED INTESTINE. SHE WENT THROUGH QUITE AN ORDEAL. SHE SAID THAT MUSC WAS FANTASTIC IN HER CARE (JUST LIKE WHEN WE HAD WLS THERE). WHO HAVE I MISSED? OH MY GOSH, MS KYLEE LOOKS LIKE SHE'S HAVING TWINS; THE BABY DROPPED & SHE'S ALLLL OUT IN FRONT REAL LOW. &, BRITTY SHOWED OFF HER FLAT, TEENY TUMMY LOOKIN' MIGHTY FINE THERE! OH YEA, MS SUSANN IS TRYING TO ORGANIZE A ROSTER OF OUR MEMBERS WITH PHONE #s & ADDRESSES ... JOT DOWN YOUR DATE OF SURGERY & YOUR BIRTHDAY AS WELL ... SEND IT TO HER BY E-MAIL OR GIVE IT TO HER AT THE NEXT MEETING. IF I MISSED ANYONE, PLEASE JOG MY MEMORY! GOD BLESS YOU ... DAWN & NICK

Hi Dawn, Not doing the muscle tightening- just the skin removal. I really did not have the time to invest in 6 weeks off with my schedule the way it is!! I was so glad to see you and Nick!!! In January my schedule will be much better, so it won't be nearly as long as it has been!!! Until next time- Hugs-Towana

I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT THERE WAS SO MUCH MORE RECOVERY NEEDED FOR THE MUSCLE TIGHTENING vs JUST THE SKIN REMOVAL. I JUST NOTICED FROM YOUR PICS THAT WE ARE NOW THE SAME WEIGHT ... 173 #s ... I STILL HAVE 33 #s TO GO TO GET TO DR BYRNE'S GOAL OF 140 #s BEFORE I CONSIDER PLASTICS. HOPE TO SEE YOU MORE NEXT JAN ... SEEMS EVEN WHEN YOU'RE AT LCBB, WE DON'T GET ALL THAT MUCH TIME TO CHAT. I'M GONNA JUST HAVE TO PULL YOU ASIDE & GET CAUGHT UP ON YOUR NEWS, ANGEL GIRL! GOD BLESS YOU & TAEYLOR ... DAWN & NICK

I had so much fun Thursday Night! It was great to see everyone, I have missed you guys so much! Towana how excited are you about you TT? The first week for me was miserable, but the drugs kept it all a blur. Thank you and Dawn for the compliments. I feel like a completely different person than I did 15 months ago. Everyone looks wonderful! Susann, getting all skinny minny on us! Kylee, are you gonna make it another 4 weeks? Goodness gracious you are ALL baby! Dawn and Nick, you know I have missed you guys, but I know you are a phone call away. Dona I am so glad you are feeling better, Rex by your side as always, what a good man! Sandy you looking good in a size 18 WOW!!!!Julie it was good to see you again, you look like you are gonna blow away with a good strong wind! David, sorry we didn't get to talk much, but you look great I must say! Becky, I saw you grabbing your BOOTY!!! LOL... Rose, I can't believe you have only been out for a few months you look wonderful! Hope to see you all next week! Britt

It was definitely wonderful to see everyone last Thursday night. EVERYONE looks wonderful - and can you believe how far we have all come. This has been such a wonderful journey and I can't tell you how much I value the good friends I have made along the way! Hope to see everyone again Thursday night and at the Christmas . We all have lots of reasons to celebrate this year! Love you all! Susann
