LAST EVENING, MY HUSBANDS FRIEND CALLED ASKING TO COME VISIT, OK, I ONLY KNOW HIS WIFE AS MERELY AN ACQUAINANCE (SP). BUT I DID SEE HER THIS WEEKEND AT THE PARK WITH OUR KIDS.
SHE WAS WOWED BY THE WEIGHT LOSS & HAD SO MANY ??????'S...

THEY ARRIVE & I COME IN THE LIVING ROOM TO GREET THE GUESTS, & HIS FRIEND SAID, "HI, ARE YOU AMINA'S SISTER????????" OF COURSE I GOT ALL EMBARRASSED & MY HUSBAND GLOWED!!!!
HE THEN WENT ON TO SAY IN ARABIC, GOD BLESS, ADIL IS A LUCKY MAN TO HAVE A PRETTY WIFE!


I FELT A LITTLE EMBARRASSED, BUT I KNOW HE WAS SO RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ITS SUCH A NICE FEELING WHEN OTHERS RECOGNIZE THE DIFFERENCE...
HOW HAPPY I AM THAT I'VE DONE THIS SURGERY, & THAT I HAVE ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT THROUGH THIS JOURNEY!!!!
THANK YOU ALL... I LOVE EACH & EVERY ONE OF YOU!!!!

LOL,

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

What a great wow!!! You DO look wonderful and it's so nice when other people notice it AND have the guts to say it. I know that us women typically give more compliments, but when a male gives them it's kinda like an "extra" wow!! Yay you Amina! You deserve it!!!
