You are “in the limelight” when you are famous and renowned and that is as far as I am going with this one. I’m not looking it up! But I am pretty sure some of my fellow freewriters are doing just that.

I’m over it now. But it took a few years.
And now in SE Asia I am not thin. Just fairly normal if not big. This suits me just fine because I already stand out in other ways here. I’m old, white, and have no husband. How weird.

Situation Critical – My rent and wifi are not paid and now are both overdue
UPDATE: I am so happy and relieved to tell you that:

It is almost Super Bowl Sunday. Statistics say that only 5% of people with health resolutions for the New Year will still be on track. Is your fitness equipment still out and are you still on a "diet?"
I lost "Half My Size" eight years ago by using natural methods. I started on December 5th and did not give up. You can do it too!
