Michelle, You are Such an Awesome Caring, Beautiful and Gorgeous Person and I am so Glad we were White Team Buddies. I watched you balance lots of Lifes Challenges and you Held Your Head High, after clearing out the CobWebs you always did the Right Thing, You got Right Back on that Horse and the Race was on Again. This is what I admire about you. I have told you this before, Your Future is So Bright you will need Versace SunGlasses.

I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!

Friends Forever,

Earl

I just want to say that I am very proud of each of you. It has been a great journey. I hope that we can continue to lose blubber around our necks and bodies. Remember, you are what you eat...And I'm a big bowl of Menudo.

Earl, you made me cry so hard that I passed a gallstone...Thanks a lot!

You guys give me so much energy to go foward each and every day. I hope that I can continue on, it will be very hard, especially after I just ate a big Delux Mexican Plate with chips and salsa...I think I'll stick my finger down my throat later.

Anyway, I have lost a total of .25Lb and I feel great!!!

Thanks guys!!!! Love you forever!!!

Pedro, there's a new forum over at mysa.com and they have fresh tacos, full of love and sliced tomatoes.  There is currently a cream cheese problem, but that won't last.

That's my suggestion, anyway.

They're at IHOP eating pancakes.

Belinda said:

NO Pedro no pancakes here maybe a taco every now and then ... but I believe you will be hearing from most of them here soon.  Hi Don!  (by the way I did get that cd and love it! thanks! brilliant choice)  I think everyone is trying to catch up with their lives!  Lots of time was needed to work these schedules into a lot of what the camera did not see.  I know even though I came in 9th place the time it took for me to come in last was huge and I dumped quite a bit on my daughter!  So I can only imagine that most are trying to get caught up with their lives, personal and professional.  As for others, for them the game is over and no need to humiliate yourself on this blog anymore..;]

When I came to this country, I weighed 120lbs. After being here for 5 years, I now weigh 450lbs. I blame my weight problem to the easy life here. Back home in Mexico I would work 12 hours a day, six days a week in the hot Sun. I regret leaving Mexico, I was thin...Now I can't even find my D**k or wipe my A**. I had to get a Monkey to help me, His name is Picos. He from the Amazon jungle in South America, he's great!.....We're planning to fly to San Francisco to get married soon.....Anyway, I have to go, they're taping my mouth shut for the night so I won't eat.

Love you guys!
