End of year photo

For the very first time in my life I'm happy with the pictures that were taken at Christmas. Wow. :) That's a size 16/18 blouse and size 18 slacks. Even my rings and shoes are smaller!

You look fantastic! And you DO look so much younger! Lucky you. I look older now -- but thinner. You also radiate happiness. Thanks for sharing such a nice picture.

Well, I'm repeating here, but you do look a lot younger and happier. Congratulations!

Rebeccalee, I look older, but thinner now, too. I still say fat is a great wrinkle treatment.

Thanks everyone!! It's still so hard to internalize sometimes; I still think of myself as morbidly obese even though my BMI is now below 35. Taking it slow is the way to go when working against 40 years of fat. But my brain is catching up, slowly.

Happy New Year, everyone!! :D

Wow, Alex, what will 2005 bring? Great job!
