I'm getting close to approval and getting a date set, so thanks for listening and I'm sure this is not the end of my cry for your input.
Thanks again! |
As humans, conciously we know we want to improve our health. We want to live a better life, free from pain. Subconciously though, there's the embarrassment we face daily that we want to get rid of. The idea that we could ever be "thin" gives us that umph to keep pushing ahead.
Don't ever think that you don't deserve to be excited about the prospect of being "thin" in addition to the health improvements. It is a package deal.
Welcome and hope to see more from you.
