Aw what's all this mushy crap about?  It's not like you had a life-altering surgery and lost a bunch of weight and have learned to be a better you or anything........
Oh, wait....that's exactly what you've done!  You have blessed us with the new and improved Gina and all her craziness and love and for that I thank you from the bottom of my heart.  I wouldn't want to have missed having you along on my journey that's for sure!

When do I get to hug your neck again?????  LOVE YOU AND SOOOO VERY PROUD OF YOU!!!!

Kris M.   Ignorance is bliss...but not when you're aware of it!!

I'm SO thankful you needed an exercise buddy a few years back. I wasn't sure if it was going to be an actual person wanting to exercise or a serial killer that was going to get his exercise from chasing me...thank G-d it was YOU (in SO many ways!!!)
My life has never been the same!

Congratulations!!
I love you!

TRACEY-nothing in my life has been the same since I met you at the track that day. I was scared to death to meet "an internet stranger"-and look at us now-PLUS-you brought me into the Ft Worth Support Group-and look what THAT led to! I LOVE YOU!!!!

 Gina......you are such a inspiration to us all.   Love you with ALL of my heart !!!  You are always there to give us words of wisdom and alway encouraging to us when we are down.   I can't imagine life without you in it.    You show us on a daily basis how to be a success with our WLS.   Thank you for being part of my life and others here on OH.
