  1. I am friending you so I can keep an eye on you as you get smaller. When the time comes, I may need to use a magnifying glass! Now fill out your profile so I have a clue who I am cheering for. For example, are you tryong to lose 10 or 100 lbs?! Are you a northerner like me or a southerner like many of my LBT pals.

Now how about we TRY to look on the bright side.
