Thanks for agreeing.
We ALL do things that are unhealthy sometimes. And I guess the overweight thing hit too close to home, because when I pledged in spring 2001 I was nearly 60 pounds overweight. I'm proud to say I worked hard and lost over 50 pounds, but you know what? My sisters loved me just the same when I was a big girl. And I love them for it!
