I am so glad you bought that dress--you look beautiful in it and your hair looks lovely.

I can't see the poster (shows up as a red x) but that might be because I'm at work--I'll look to see if I can see it from home tonight.

You are just amazing!

Congratulations all around. The poster was really clever. You look wonderful and you are an inspiration to me. I love your outlook on things - your posts are always upbeat and positive. I hope all goes well with this pregnancy.

Edited to say: Those were sort of random thoughts - but I'm leaving them. It sounds like a letter a 4th grader would write! LOL. It's from the heart, though.

Thank you so, so much everyone, I simply love all the responses!

These are the kinds of events that make all of the BS worth it, including the politics of running a weight loss group and the "controversy" of the poster (some of you may have read I had a bad night the following week, lol).

I've had a teensy gain since (likely just a fluctuation) but I'm hanging in there. I had a wonderful time, even in the moment I was mistakenly asked to walk on stage before I was supposed to! I shrugged, waved with a big smile, and curtsied before rushing backstage again. I sorta wish someone had captured that on film but no one was allowed to take any photos of the presentation.

Not sure if I'll be attending next year but I'm thankful to have gotten the experience. I'm still in awe over being called an inspiration!
