Happy Mardi Gras!

Today is our Fat Tuesday celebration at work. Yes, it will be fun…but I’d rather be in the Quarter! I wanted a hurricane for breakfast, but settled on oatmeal instead. LOL Baby steps, right?

I found my personal motivation for the week: Mardi Gras 2001 vs. Mardi Gras 2005

I still have a long way to go…but I’ll get there. Look, I’m even wearing stripes. Sign of confidence or indifference? LOL You make the call. Shoulders are going to disappear soon…but my moonpie face helps balance out my big booty and thighs. 🙂

Hope everyone has a great day. Don’t flash for cheap beads…get the goods before you show da goods.

You look wonderful! I love the way you’re wearing your hair!

You are beautiful inside and out! I love those colors on you, too. Good for you, having oatmeal instead of a hurricane for breakfast. Though, the hurricane would have made your arrival at work a bit more interesting, perhaps….lol. Linette

You look gorgeous Courtenay. You have a lovely thin face with wonderful cheekbones and that sweater shows off your curves. Tell me that four years ago you wouldn’t have been thrilled to be where you are at right now.

Your not a Diva for no reason. You look amazing. You have come a long way, and have you doubt you will go as far as YOU feel the need to. I think you look great already.

You are such an inspiration!

I went back to WW today. Again. After another absence. You are such an inspiration, thank you for that. I am putting myself first this time and going ahead with my program. I would really like to lose 75 lbs before August 10, 2005. I have a trip planned for then. I just hope & pray that I can do it this time.

You look great and are such an inspiration. I joined WW the day after my 40th (2 weeks ago) and have been hitting the net for inspirational sites to visit while bored @ work. When I found yours I had to start reading from the beginning of your adventure/journey. Keep up the good work – you are truly beautiful both inside and out. Dawn

C, You look BEAUTIFUL!!! I cant believe those pictures are the same people. Its amazing :). I always wanted to go to Mardi Gras! Love, Elyssa PS : I’m on the OD now too. If you want, please read my entries, my name is Greekbabe. I mentioned you in the first one.

You know I love you to pieces. Sister you look AWESOME. Hold your head up HIGH!! Happy “Skinny” Tuesday! Smooches…

Woo Hoo!

Girl, you have done the d**n thang…keep up the good work and it will payoff. Remember, you are my inspiration…By the way, did you get a piece of king cake..LOL Ms. Faye
