My daughter has lost 125 pounds!

I just wanted to let you see my daughter Laura on the night that she won her TOPS Division 9 award. She was 1st place for a loss of 89 pounds in 2007. She did not place in the California state awards but she won the area from Bakersfield to Sacramento ( one third of this huge state). She had her surgery in August of 2007. Can you tell I'm proud of her? Julia

P.S. Her picture is on my profile - the picture was taken just before she received her award.

wow, what a stunning young lady she is......you have every right to be proud.....and what an accomplishment for her..... You both rock!!!!

Thank you Darlene! That's so nice of you to say!

She looks beautiful and look at you. Your face is so much smaller than the last time we were together. You both you great....  She looks alot like you. What smiles.  Debi

Oh, thanks for noticing Debi! I'm still losing for sure! We need to get together again soon!

you need to put a new avatar up , You are looking great.

Way to go, Laura! You have every right to be proud of your daughter, Julia.  Laura is a beautiful and very successful young woman. Congratulations to her and thanks for sharing such an accomplishment. Hugs, Kathi

You know, it warms my heart to see her like this. I have carried such guilt in relation to her weight issues. Now I feel lighter because she has conquered it... and she's an adult, so it's up to her to keep the weight off now.

She looks great and you should be very proud of her. Diana
