This was an amazing and honest story. You are a real person. Nothing phony about you. To heck with what others think. I have learned to use that mind-set.
God bless you and huggles,
Annie

Jane,
I am working from home and just read this today. It made me smile and gave me a little incentive. Not to walk from my home to work, but at least move my body more. I have taken the "be mindful of the food and eat less" track to becoming more healthy. Some days that works more than others, some days not. What I have found is that my fingers have lost weight. Can you get to that?! The smallest apendage on my body is the one loosing weight. Go figure. Anyway... LOL Imani

Gail says: Glad to be your friend, Jane, everyone needs a sweet smart social worker for a friend! Next time we work together, let's go waddling. My heart started beating faster when you described feeling warm and cheerful and AWAKE after walking to work -- you're a super model!

You are a very, very funny writer. You have a gift for taking the ordinary and making the reader laugh aloud.

Thanks, Carole! I admire all you've accomplished for yourself and for your community. I'm trying to get moving and lose some weight, and i find it very hard. So as a fat person, i want to encourage myself and other fat people to do the best we can, however imperfectly, because any movement forward is better than no movement. As i'm sure you'd agree!
