Mark, have your ears been burning?  There is a fella on our AR board who makes the most beautiful pens. He donated two for raffle prizes for the Walk......now I just have to make sure they get there LOL

Thanks for your kind words...keep up your own good work with that knee.

Take care!

Aloha my friend......I loved reading your story. I did not realize how much you went through with your foot! So sorry that you had that particular challenge, but sweet sister....you were a hero in defying all the predictions and coming through like a superstar......even wearing cute and sexy shoes! Hooray!

The body image thing is really something isn't it. I still look at myself in the mirror sometimes and am shocked. My mind still holds the image of that 319 lb. woman....and forgets where she went. I stand sideways and I'm thin except for the bulge that is my tummy (it will be gone in a few months). Some say I should just leave well enough alone, but I would reallly like that stomach bulge to be gone...so I'm going for it.

Congratulations again.......you are amazing!! Thanks for all the loving support you give to all of us.

Aloha nui loa,

Maui Karen

I do really want to see that Ortho Doc and go , but I'll be good.

Nope, if you want that bulge gone, then sister, make it so!   Besides, since when do you listen to anyone else but us????

Thank you for always being here for me, it's meant more than I can say.  Take care my friend. Hope you enjoyed your day off in paradise.

Susan,

It has been a pleasure to know you though this lumpy, bumpy, crazy but wonderful journey.

This journey never ends but with the love and guidance from you and our OFF family, we shall forge ahead.

Thank you for sharing with us. You are an inspiration to all. Bless you my dear Sister!

This ride is bumpy enough for Dramamine, isn't it?  You're a big part of why I've been successful and kept what part of sanity is still between my ears. Thank you for all of your love and support!


Big hugs to my "little" sister

Susan,

Congratulations on your 2nd surgiversary! You are such a wonderful example of how rich our lives can be after surgery.  I will begin my new life on Friday, and I really appreciate reading your story.  You are such an inspiration!  Best wishes for another wonderful, thin, and healthy year.

Cara, your second anniversary will be here before you know it!  Take care of yourself in these days before surgery and remember we'll be right here when you need us.


Thank you for your kind words. 


Hugs

Congratulations to you, Susan,

My, I didn't know how far you've come.  It's wonderful to know you accomplished so much with your foot and, all the while, losing the weight.  Hooray for you!

You have so very much to be proud of and it is an inspiration to me and so many others to share in the success of those who have gone before us.

Thanks for taking the time to express yourself so eloquently.  Rejoice in the past two years and look ahead to the bright and beautiful future!

Hugs,

Kathi

In a way my foot issues kept me from really enjoying the weight loss process, but it's all turned out just fine in the end. Honestly, I don't know what I would have done here without my OFF family. Being new in a town where we didn't have anyone, I was able to find all the support I needed right here.

What a wonderful family we are!

Susan
