Default My Fattie Francois

He was 26 pounds. I just lost him on Wednesday to diabetes and renal failure. :'-(

His death is actually what has inspired me to take control of my own weight, and what got me poking around online, where I found this site.

Miss you, Frannie!

Sorry for your loss, it is really hard to lose a beloved pet. He had such a sweet face! We had a 20 lb. cat - he wasn't pudgy - just very, very large! I still miss him after 10 years.

Meg is right, something positive about the situation is that you found 3FC. Welcome! You will love it here
