"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment." Kate White
Thanks so much for all the compliments!! When you guys look in the mirror, do you still see the old you?? Do you ever get over that?? I can't really see too much of a difference, but everyone else can.
Thanks again! Love you all!!

Thanks to Gidget (Bridget) and getting our scrapbook pages together for the office book, I've put my starting picture next to my current picture. It has helped me to see that, YES, there is change happening and I am losing weight! Great idea to help with this problem I have. I love you girl!
You are doing great Brenda, never loose sight of what you have accomplished!
