Good job!!! And I think I know how you feel. "Obese" is such an UGLY word...it has sooooooo many negative and disgusting implications that none of us who are labeled as such wants to feel about ourselves. As a "Morbidly Obese" person myself, it is just horribly degrading. I exercise regularly, I can run up a flight of steps, I can play tennis for an hour but yet, I'm so fat that I'm going to drop dead at any moment according to my title!! HAHAH!

so YEAH, it IS a BIG DEAL to be able to move out from under that label!!!!

YAAAAAYYYY YOU!!!


Peace,
Star
