Woo! Go Val! I love her, I think because she looks exactly like my aunt and I adore my aunt so she always reminds me of her. In any event, I'm very proud of Valerie.

Like Valerie, I have also had some weight issues.

Some of you may not know this, but I'm a bit overweight.

Valerie is a great inspiration to anyone who has ever battled a weight problem. :)
