Hi Bridget,
I know that we have never met, but after reading your last post I felt compelled to write and tell you how your "sense of humor" inspired me to start using this forum. Now that I have 5 days before my "big day" I can not tell you how much having this forum means to me. When I started reading posts, your replies and comments were so full of humor and compassion. If your "sense of humor" has changed than from this my point of view, I would have to say it is for the better!!!
When I have had concerns or questions your replies are sweet as sugar with out the dumping!!
By the way, I hope I can meet you someday as my starting weight is near to where you started and I hope I will do as well as you have. After looking at you photos I am given hope and inspiration!! I am curious as to how tall you are? In your pic you look tall, are you??
One more tid bit, I have a friend in Ohio who had the surgery 18 months ago and laughed harder than hard @ your "No Dumping Allowed shot!! ha ha ha ha!!! YOU MAKE ME LAUGH!!! YOU MAKE US LAUGH!!
