First thing I would like to say...wow! Lynette Hartman , you rock my world. Thank you for this time to share my story. I met several women who inspired me......really inspired. One of those you look in their eyes, well, you know you see more than you thought you could. You see hurt, you see anger, you see frustration......you see yourself.
This weekend I was at an event for Weight Watchers lose for good campaign. I shared my story, was amazed the food that was also brought for the food pantry.
Applebees brought goodies to eat for everyone. Lynette did a terrific job having great food options for people to nibble on.
Ok, I met one woman I can not get out of my mind. She and I ...."clicked"...you got it ...Right?

Before I was who I am meant to be. We will see her new, full of life, smiling bigger than ever. You will meet her here one day!~I PROMISE!. I will follow her!
So, see, I was so inspired! I love Weight Watchers!
