Thank you so much for mentioning me in this post, @reonlouw. This is such a boost for me today. I am always glad to see you in my kryptonia tasks because I know I will read something interesting and thought provoking when I get here. But this is a wonderful surprise.

I always say anyone can lose weight and get healthy if I did. My last 90 pounds (of 130 total) came off in a quick 10 months when I lived in a small town. Many people were shocked when they saw me so small, and would blurt out. "I thought you would be dead - not thin." So that tells you how poor my health was when I finally started to change. Anyone can do this and I will help anyone who asks me for help.

I have a long, long list of good steemers - I will miss many, but here are some of the best.
@mariannewest - join her for #freewrite and your life will improve. She is a true gem of steemit, a good friend, and an excellent source of homesteading info.
@valorforfreedom - Philip is the opposite of Marianne above - he kicks butt and takes no prisoners. I have learned so much from him even though he is not politically correct and I am such a prude. He's currently posting huge amounts of "how to steemit" and I cannot begin to process it all -but I know it is there when I need it.
@ahh12345 - join his curation league and prepare to find lots of good posts to support with your upvotes and meet many others trying to improve the place by curation.
@majes.tytyty - great help in English for those who need it and truly amazing photos.
@taskmaster4450 - A great booster for steemit and another place I learn things about the place and how to succeed here.
@maarnio - join his daily crypto contests - learn something and win!
@sydesjokes - a true minnow booster and I'm sure you already know him :)
@getonthetrain - excellent info about budgeting and saving money.
@blxphabet is my son and the person I hold in my heart. I fought to stay alive for him throughout his youth. He makes me proud every day; and glad I'm still here.

OK - that's it! I'm not mentioning whales, but if you find any you can relate to - that a good place to settle in and learn. They have what we want.

Thank you once again for the mention. You have made my day :) I'm resteeming this post so I can spend hours visiting others I haven't seen yet and those I already know.
