Hello friends I know I have been missing and have not posted in a while but I wanted to let you know that I try to lurke when I can and when I can offer some good quality information on a post I will. I have just been crazy busy, working 2 jobs, going to school and raising a family. I thank you all for having advice and suggestions when i need them. I will post pictures as soon as I get my photobucket account together so far I have lost 100lbs! I am so glad about that and so thankful! No more Diabetes!!! That is a blessing to me. I am currently wearing a size 16 in jeans all the way down from a size 28 so I am feeling very blessed. Pictures will come soon thank you all again.

My new life is beginning!
