Guest guest Posted August 1, 1999 Report Share Posted August 1, 1999 Cheryl, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! And it really is a birth-day to celebrate!! I thought I remembered you from a post or two over the past couple of weeks. You are the lucky gal with the prince and soon to be family from the Netherlands, right? (pls correct me if I am wrong) I am so glad to hear you are doing so well and those " meet the family " type jitters are gone. Take care and have a wonderful new birth day!

Guest guest Posted August 3, 1999 Report Share Posted August 3, 1999 You are so right girly... I am happy .. and I do feel Sooooooooo much better .. I'm not losing fast but fairly steady. I down 28 lbs since June 17. I'm coming to town Aug 11 and staying with Beth. (sis) is having surgery the 12th... I'd love to seeya at sometime during those two days. I'll be in town the evening before and stay till I know she's awake and going to do okay..... God I dread driving around without Rudie cause I'm not a big city driver like he is. Hope I don't get lost... hehehe Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
