re: "...That's the end of my little speech."

Thanks Anni, I enjoyed your "speech", and always appreciate your honesty and helpful suggestions! You should be so proud, you have a lot on your plate and have come so far!

geez, for "dumpy" pictures they sure do look great! your body is going to totally transform once you start with the weights, especially with how down with the nutrition bit you are. you are going to be turning some serious heads if you aren't already:big_smile:

Now, don't be insulted, anni - but you look healthier than I thought you would and not as much like Olive Oyl as i had pictured..... Nice pictures!

Howdie - take care of yourself and be confident (like i have to tell you that) it helps keep the predators at bay.

my dad told me i needed to carry my sand wedge around with me at night. too bad my clubs are at my parents' house. perhaps i will carry a bamboo cane instead. it seems to deter crime in singapore, maybe it will deter crime in south houston.

anni - i promise i will be careful. if i get caught in the midst of a shootout and happen to die, i'll have someone notify all of you. ok, that's really not funny, but i don't think that will happen.

i still maintain that i would be afraid of me if i were not myself, so hopefully other people who want to rob me/beat me up will think the same thing. i think i will get a tattoo that makes me look badass in the meantime.

I can support the tattoo idea. My oldest daughter has I don't how many. On the Mom level I'm horrified, on the person level I think she looks cool. Yes, I tell her both. Be sure to take pictures when you get it. All kidding aside, I will add you to the list of people God and I chat about. It certainly couldn't hurt.

Hi there, Anni, so nice to "meet" you! You give me inspiration big time, now! I'm only a year older and figured I was hopeless, posting your pics has not only showed me that it can be done (even though you say you are starting training), your posts are always insightful!

Hec, looks like your excitement over saving on your car insurance has been bowled over with Anni's pics!

Thank vedak. Let me tell you that this has taken extreme dedication and hard work for the last six months and I'm not done yet. When I started here I was so weak from illness and disability that I could not wear false eyelashes because my eyelids were too weak to hold them up. I love false eyelashes but when I tried to wear them I could not see because I couldn't keep my eyes open. So what you see in those pictures is the results of six months of LIVING and fine tuning my diet. My exercise program is way scaled back from most peoples, but it's improving too.

These guys can tell you that there have been many, many physical hurdles overcome and many more to go but I did it because they kept telling me to push harder. So keep slugging because it's worth it, because you are worth it. That's the end of my little speech.

anni - thanks a million for the thoughts when chatting with the Big Guy. i need all the help i can get in that area. if i get inked i'll definitely post some pictures of the new body art. of course, the hebrew word for "light" doesn't look very intimidating, but after i let my friends draw all over my arms on my birthday i woke up realizing that ink makes your muscles look more defined. let's just hope the thugs where i live aren't anti-semetic, even though i'm not jewish, i think hebrew tends to send that impression...

hahaha oh the drunken shamings. I have never been involved (neither target, nor the drawer)...but i've seen a couple that were in my hallway this past semester. one of the most interesting had to be however when our friend was drunk passed out, and our high friend decided to draw a smiley face on the right one...and a frowny face on the left one. The ones being his balls that were hanging out of the drunken guys shorts.....
