Even if they arent responding, but just reading about me everyday, that is still awesome. I think it provides encouragement to everyone. Knowing I have some "fans" makes me feel like I am actually one of the people on tv who goes on to inspire tons of people that they have never even met. I know I have become a groupie of some of the posters in here as well. Before I used to measure my day in calories and burgers, now I measure it by how many people's lives I may have changed.

Carrie...you are right on target here. I feel the same way. Knowing that what I have to say can help somebody is enough...it is all worth it.
