How wonderful for you. I know you must have just had your jaw drop at that statement. "Normal" It's a little overrated anyway isn't it? You will never be "normal" in my eyes.. A normal weight and body frame yes, but otherwise.. no way jose! Love ya girl..

Congrats .. you've worked hard for that and you deserve it.

Smile Thanks

Thanks sugar peas! You guys are awesome!

Last night I was laying with my man and he had his arms wrapped around me and then he said, baby you are so small... then he started rubbing my sides, he asked are those your ribs? It was a funny moment... he then proceeded to tell me hadnt felt his ribs in about 10 years... I remember that all too well.

You right Christina, Im not normal.... I still think Im 19 years old.... at least I look that part now.....

Tonya..... your such a sweetie, your well on your way... keep kickin' a$$

Kim... thanks your the best!

Physically you are "normal" and heck I still feel like a 19 year old so don't think that isn't normal.. lol

However, you are a bit quirky and that makes you special and unique.. not normal.. what is normal anyway?? LOL

Bridge girl,

I am so happy for you. You deserve all the happiness someone can have. I think that story you shared about "your man" was too cute.

Love you tons!
