DebbieCousins: Just saw more notes on your new Profile picture. Wow, I guessed you to be about 40 years old in this picture, not taken last month. I'm blown away. Yes, we understand the makeup issue, but many use makeup for pictures, and we can't all look as terrific as you. And yes, we all see ourselves as we pass by a mirror the rest of the time. I seldom wear makeup when staying at home, but do when going out to not scare little children. Also, I can't understand why you aren't terribly wrinkled with the weight you have lost. I have only lost a few pounds the last couple of months and I'm much more wrinkled. Maybe you are pulling our leg with this gorgeous picture. This is a drop dead gorgeous famous actress or model. We can certainly accept the "real" you, knowing you are not 40 any more. You age like the rest of us. 

ahhh, thank you, Snowwhite! You are so kind! My daughter said I looked 20 years younger, and even my friends at church had a hard time it was really ME! Someone asked about the "pinkness" in my hair ... a dear YOUNG friend (32) sprayed some pink hairspray onto the front of my hair. To my GREAT surprise, my husband (independent, fundamental, conservative Baptist preacher) said, "I LIKE it that way! You should wear it to church that way." I felt his forehead to see if he was delirious from a raging fever. He said, "It looks better than the grey." I agreed that it does, and am going to get the front "permanently" dyed to pink. What my friend had used was a wash-out kind - I bought a can of it and used it when I went out until it was all gone. With regard to the wrinkling, BELIEVE me, I have plenty of that! But, the great thing about all the wrinkles is that they are only THERE because that skin isn't filled with FAT anymore, to keep them all stretched out! I'm sure my skin will get more taut as I continue to keep the weight off. Again, thank you for your kind words!
