I just heard that a dear friend of mine had passed away -- was obese and had several co-morbidities -- was only 45 years old. Passed away on Thanksgiving day....

Please, if you are thinking about surgery; it will save your LIFE!

Please "eat to live", not "live to eat" --- life is not about food... life is about you!

High blood pressure and Diabetes---that's all I know for sure.... I'm sure there are others, but still --- obesity --- is a growing problem and we need to educate others as much as we can. Sad to say, there are casualties... Kelly

Thank you for this post. It reminds me to continue to be thankful....

Hugs to ya,

It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed.
Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up.
It knows that it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve.
It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle
when the sun comes up you'd better be running.
