I am so proud of you Laura! I haven't known you since the beginning but I have been blessed to have known you for the last 20 months! ))) God is so good & His goodness is shown through your journey. I love reading about it & continue to be inspired by your determination. My prayers are continually with you. Thanks for always being there for me!
Yes Mom & I have been with you from the first blog, but more than that we have been with you from the first noticable wt. gain attributed to BC pills which apparently morphed into food addiction, we have seen all the victories and the defeats resulting from tragedys,rejections,and other things too numerous to list, but you have always bounced back rather than accept defeat. Your new commitment is a tribute to finally growing up and realizing how close you have been to having waited too long, your realization of portion control and mind management will get you to your goal, with Mike & Marks help and above all seeking the help of your Lord & Savior, we love you & are here always
Mom & Dad

Laura, I have just finished reading About Me. Your experience has given me hope. I had the stomach stapling--even went thru a 2nd surgery to make sure the staples were still in tact; they were. I have gained every ounce I'd lost thru that surgery back plus over 100 lbs more. When I joined WW the last time I weighed in at 360 lbs--more than I'd weighed even carrying either of my 2 children. I'm at 326 now, I've been attending WW classes over 3 yrs. My husband is getting a bit ticked at me b/c I'm not closer to my goal. My health is bad--mainly diabetes and post-polio syndrome. I'm SURE my dr will put me on insulin when I check in w/him this Wednesday....I dread the insulin thing. Exercising every day is not possible, ...I TOTALLY have to depend upon less calories. I do walk in a warm pool--try to get there 2 days a week. I'm so tired of carrying this weight around. I've been a stumbling block to BOTH my children--they are obese as well--still basically healthy but much overweight! I wanna be a winner & desire to meet a wonderful WW leader who will work consistently w/me as Mike has walked with you. Thank you so much for your inspiration. I would sincerely like to chat w/you some time thru email, if possible. I'm 62 yrs old & I feel like I'm 82! Thank you so much for sharing details of your life. I'll make sure my email is listed on my profile so you can contact me. Thanks again for your encouragement.
