WELCOME
It's makeover week - just like on Biggest Loser!! LOL ... originally, I had planned that once I lost some weight I would take myself clothes shopping, turns out I can do some of that shopping in my own closet now ... I am so psyched! Although it's been so long since this stuff fit me, I wonder if it's still (or ever was!) fashionable!!
In any event, it's been 8 weeks ... so why not treat yourself a little bit, for me it will be highlights and a trim. I always say a good haircut is like a good knife - the right one does most of the work for you!

ADVICE
So, we've made over our bodies, our wardrobes, our hair and makeup, and our recipes - what's next? ... My guest columnist for this week was unable to join us, so I did some research on anti-aging products and potential procedures which could help us fine-tune our new looks - but in my own twisted way, that turned out to be more depressing than catching my reflection in a car window. I didn't know what to do, so I asked Oprah and she told me 11 Ways to Feel Beautiful!
Laurie- you go girl! So proud of you!!! We don't need articles we need the secrets to your success! I am so happy for you....happy closet shopping!
