My article.

Hey, look, I'm in a little paper.

East Orlando Sun

It's on pages 13 and 14 of the e-paper (page B1 and B2, the Lifestyle section) of the real paper.

I think it came out alright. It has the necessary info, but I'm a bit miffed that he didn't put my Before picture in there.

Isn't that weird? I mean, I'd want to see the before picture of someone who dropped that much weight, but maybe now I'll get emails just because people want to see it!!!

And there's a LOT of type-o's which drives me crazy... but other than that, it's not too bad.

Very cool......I love it! You look beautiful in your pictures.

Tweak · 05-07-2008, 06:27 PM

You deserve the recognition, girl. You're fuckin' amazing. SOOOOOOOO proud of you.

Scarlett · 05-07-2008, 06:30 PM

COOL COOL COOL COOL!

And I learned some things! And the pictures are great! And I totally want to partake in a Twinkie Lab...

Did I mention that was cool.

You rock! We gots a celebrity on board!

Mrs Croft · 05-07-2008, 08:01 PM

good to see you getting some recognition for all your hard work

Raina · 05-07-2008, 09:29 PM

That's so neat. I agree though about not putting in the before. That's pretty dumb. It's a great story and seeing the physical change just ices the cake.

BIG SMT · 05-07-2008, 10:37 PM

Awesome article! Congrats, I hope it gets you some clients! They would be blessed to have you advise them.

Oh and did anyone mention that OMG you are gorgeous!

T-Cake · 05-07-2008, 11:06 PM

Thank you everyone.

The print copy was in my driveway just now when we got home from dinner with family.

Makes me nerrrrrvoussssss

And seriously, WHY is my before picture not in it? I don't get that, seriously... but again... we'll see if I get a response from that tomorrow. I might not because it's a human interest piece... but I might. I think the before/after would have been (for sure) the best way to grab a reader's attention but who knows.

congrats... again

Congrats!
