You are very welcome... I wish I were closer, I'd love to be able to really be there to see you getting ready to go! I emailed you privately with my response also because sometimes people don't want to hear face it or deal with it. You my friend, are willing to listen and hear. Thank you for being open. Take a BUNCH of pictures when you go! This challenge is a great way too to see how much you can lose before May...let's go, woo hoo!  

You should go! Kick up your heals and party! Who cares if you are not as skinny as you want to be? You are smaller then when you started and you should be proud no matter how "big" you may feel. Embrace, Embrace, Embrace! 

Im so glad for you. Gather together some of your best, funny stories about your family and your class mates... have a great time and Im sure you will be glad you went. 

They are holding my 50th high school reunion right here in Florida this spring......... it's really all about comfort level and I have chosen not to go THIS TIME-I went to the 25th....had a ball! I am 67 and still recognizable because I meet so many of retire's in Florida with whom I went to high school. My personal issue is that I have been single for Soooooooooooo many years now, that I don't want to show up without a mate. I know it's silly to some, but not to many of us who are not "dating." Have yourself a wonderful time!!!!! 

Just think you can show off your new skinny body. You will make those mens mouths drop open!! They will be saying wow who is that hot momma walking in that door? So strut your stuff when you walk in that door. I know I will be doing that when I go to mine!! 

BRAVO my friend!! I'm very happy to hear that you were able to "hear" what you needed to!! Very happy that you are going and can see why it is important to go. :) (hugs) Have a great day! 

I think what I heard pertains to MORE than just about going to a reunion. It all boils down to if I'm willing to let self pity override my happiness. =) 

There ya go! 

you are reminding me of something I always told my children... Happiness cannot be found in a "place"... like moving to a new city or state, Happiness is a STATE of mind. So lets ALL get happy! no worries (Bob Marley signing off)
