Ta ta for now!

h y buddy! i'm glad you've been doing so well and feeling better! don't worry about the scale...it will come down - the more important thing is how you feel. honestly - the less weight you have to lose, the harder it is to get that off! frustrating but kind of relieving that we only have about 10 pounds to lose! keep up the awesome work...i KNOW you can do it. i checked out the hotels we'll be staying at. all of them have workout rooms so i'm going to try and hit those while i'm there...at least a few times :) if i can find internet access, i will definitely check in. won't be able to weigh-in but i'll give you a little report on how i'm doing. i can't wait to chat when i get back.

i also got my card today and started laughing out loud (little ab workout there)! and then immediately started crying while reading your message :) thank you so so much - you are so sweet and your card meant more than i could even tell you. i feel blessed every single day that i have you in my life and am so incredibly thankful that our destined roommate situation took place! seriously, i couldn't imagine my life without your friendship. have a wonderful next two weeks....keep up the GREAT work. miss you already!
