CORRINE!!!

What a FABULOUS WOW moment for my fabulous friend!

IN real life you are even more magnificent, as a person, and physically. You are amazing, and your journey has been an amazing one that newbies can look to and be encouraged by!!!

We pranced together in the foothills of Mt. Rainier, and we will do even more prancing on our T-T Caribbean cruise as roommates. You are a gem, and I am privileged to know and love you!

Congratulations, just the PURE JOY of your accomplishment!!!

HUGS!

Way to go Corrine!!! That is fantastic! You have obviously worked hard and are reaping the benefits! You look great, and more importantly, are so much healthier without the excess weight. Keep up the great work!!

For fear of sounding like an oscar winner (although that's exactly how I feel), I just want to say a big thanks to everyone - I couldn't have done it without your support.
Congratulations Corrine!! You have the right to be proud and prance around. You have done wonderfully and have taken hold of your life with such a zest and zeal!! Thank you for your inspiration and what you bring to this forum. You most certainly play a very special part in this forum family and I am so glad you are here to share your journey with us!
