Catalina,

He he he, I like that! That and thin people have their problems too.

Looking good does not mean they are happy. Just like us losing the

weight does not mean we are suddenly going to be happy. I guess that's

why I don't let people who look good bother me. I go by the kind of

person they are. It doesn't matter how good you look if you are a b*@

or an a$. Then they are just as ugly or more so than somebody who is

not society's idea of good looking. Ok, rambling here......... just

trying to say looks don't matter. It was who you are that counts. We

need to remember to do this to feel better, not just to look better.
