Thank you all my neighborhood PEEPS! (PEEPS IN THE HOOD
Marla) lol..
And Marianna.....YOU BETCHA I'd DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN!!
Even though I still have that 20 I want to lose....and it's work to keep it off...I AM keeping it off by KEEPIN' ON!!
I will be "50" this year...and I am proud to say (despite my flaws lol..) that I am FABULOUS AT ALMOST 50! lol..
My ONLY regret (probably all heard this a zillion times) Is that I WISH I'D HAD DONE IT 20 YEARS AGO!
BUt....it is what it is and I'll TAKE IT!!
Lynn...I will post those pics......but I might have to wait till I get home..they are on Photobucket!
THANKS again and MANY HUGS GOING OUT TO ALL THE NEIGHBORHOOD PEEPS!!

Thank you again to all my neighbors who posted! I appreciate the well wishes and encouragement and support!!!
For those that say I'm an inspiration....that makes me feel GREAT! I've never felt like an inspiration I guess because I fight my own demons and feel like i've never really hit any kind of goal.
I NEVER had one nor did my surgeon every set one for me!
SO my goal is to KEEP IT OFF and NEVER GO BACK!! With a little help from my FRIENDS IN THE HOOD!! It is a REALITY at 4 years post op!!
Sending Cali hugs to you ALL!
Sunshine LOVES YA!!
