Teri, you are a real inspiration! Although I weigh about 30 lbs more than you did when you started your journey, I could see a resemblance with me. I've been wondering if my legs would ever look good and yours sure do now, so I am hoping to have that experience. Also, I noticed that you had "padding" above your wrists. I hate that!!! I see that yours is gone, so I hope to see mine disappear, too. It is very heartening to see that even after a few years, you are keeping the weight off and feel good about yourself. Luckily, you have a great husband for support. I am sure he appreciates having a more active wife now and one that is alot healthier. You Rock!!!

Happy belated Birthday! You're 3! I had my 3rd birthday in Feb and your notes are so much like mine. I too gained some weight and went from a size 4 up to a 6 mostly & rerely 8. My darling husband thinks I look much healthier too. We've come a long way baby and deserve it. Congrats on your successful journey.

<b>I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY~*~ I said a prayer for you today And know God must have heard- I felt the answer in my heart Although He spoke no word I didn't ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn't mind, I asked Him to send treasures Of a far more lasting kind, I asked that He'd be near you At the start of each new day, To grant you health and blessings And friends to share your way. I asked for happiness for you In all things great and small, But it was for His loving care I prayed the most of all. (unknown author) FROM MY HEART TO YOU~*~Hugs~*~</b>
