You have the cutest daughter.

[Lori Hudson]

I'm going to do your challenge, too! I have grown OUT of my size 10s. This won't be easy because Spring Break is next week and I certainly will want to eat with my kids home. I will wear my size 10 jeans to inspired. You and I will be perfect 10s!

[Amy]

I so want to go to your event!!!!! Any cahnces of doing it again on the west coast?? Utah maybe?!?

[Christine Campbell]

~~~waving to McKenna~~~

OK, have I mentioned how many lottery tickets I've bought so I can go to your event - because at this point, it's the only way I'll be able to go.
Ya, how fun would it be to call my boss and say, hey, I quit, I'm going to North Carolina, see ya!!!
A girl can dream....
You have no idea how bad I want to be there.
off to buy another ticket.
oh and btw, nice jeans :)

[Rebecca G.]

Ok... first of all, so not fair saying that we have to wait until the event to find out the big news. But, I guess there should be some surprises, right? LOL!

Second, you look fabulous. Of course, I think I told you that when you were here in CA, but if I didn't... well, you look fabulous!

Lastly, could your daughter be any cuter? I mean really...

[Angela Williams]

I'm not able to come to the event ,but I'm excited for you. Just a shot in the dark, but did you perhaps get some news about a certain celebrity coming to Inspired???? Don't forget to put the wish over your bed so that it's "out there"!

Had a great time in your classes in Spokane this weekend. Thanks for all of the great projects and inspiration!

[jilliene isaacs]

O.M.G.! (I love saying that) you look soooooooo good! I'm super happy for you! I know how good it feels to love the skin your in - I gained a ton with my pregnancies and it took forever to shed.

I have to say that your post totally rejuvenated my excitement for Inspired! I am now bubbling with excitement (once more). I'm doing a zillion swaps with the Inspired Yahoo site and I have to say that it has been like the event started months ago. I already have a bunch of new friends! i cannot wait to hear your "pass-out-able" news. Can you give me a hint???

I know you can do size 10 by next month. You are the incredible shrinking woman! Hugs to you and your adorable family! jilliene

[Jeanette]

I'm intrigued by who the surprise guest will be at Inspired. I cannot wait. I'm ready for some creativity and inspiration. :)

[Terri B in Oregon]

Wow, looking fabuloso! You have lost a ton of weight and inches! You should be so proud of yourself! I never thought you were heavy at all, but if you feel you needed to lose weight that is all that matters! And I bought lottery tickets tonight and I am going to win and I hope there will still be a spot for me to go to the EVENT! Or if I don't win, maybe next year.....

[London Tierney]

Wanted to say that I soooo had a blast at your classes this weekend in Spokane! You are a very sweet soul! So awesome by the way that you have lost an amazing amount of weight, I am really happy for you! Gap and Coach here you come!

[Stacey Cormaci]

I'm so happy for you and your weight loss. That is fantastic. Keep up the hard work you are a great inspiration. I have been really enjoying your blog and can hardly wait for April. It just keeps getting more exciting every day. My favorite on your blog has been the segment on Rosie and the blue hat...love it love it .....

[Shelley]

your secret guest just HAS to do with your most sought after celeb! I just KNOW IT! you wouldn't be able to publicize it due to press, yada yada yada... i won't be there - but will be WISHING i was! lookin hot momma!

[bonafyde]

I gotta say you are looking Fab! The event sounds like an absolute dream! I soooo wish I could go!
Good luck with the size 10 goal, so do-able! even easier if you nix the Dew, seriously I know a friend that lost 29 pounds initially just from stopping her consumption of soft drinks alone...crazy huh!

[Andrea Clark]

Congrats on the weigh in... believe it or not those 2 pounds are a good thing... THAT my friend is MUSCLE you are building... And did you know that the more MUSCLE that you build the bigger boost your metabolism gets and the better and faster you burn your calories. SO MUSCLE IS GOOD!!!!

GO GIRL - I am working hard at doing the same thing and haven't lost more than three pounds yet BUT that is because I have built muscle and in doing that LOST 1 inch on my waist and 1 inch around my hips so far and that is only in 4 weeks baby. WOO HOO

Keep it up you look FAB

[Sarah]

I agree with the last comment.
It might just be muscles which weighs heavier. It's good to note how your clothes fit and not rely solely on the number on the scale.
also, if you just returned from Japan, with jetlag, you might be retaining water or be bloated from traveling, altitudes, etc...
So keep doing what you're doing (it sure is working) and no worries. I know you can fit in those size 10 jeans.
Looking forward to seeing you in them. Aloha.

[Paulette Sarsfield]

OK lets all be size 10 together...I grew out of my size 10's before Christmas 7 just started making an effort to get back into them...Way to go Donna, see you in April!!!!

[Cameron]

Oh my gosh I am SO FRICKIN' EXCITED about Inspired!!! I can't wait!

I sent my sister Tauni to your Celebrate Life class in Spokane and she had a blast and is again inspired. Thanks so much!

[Annette Abrahamson]

i hope your event is awesome!! wish i could be there. i also neeeeed to know about this necklace with the heart pendant you've been wearing???what is it? where did you get it? :)

[Catherine]

Thanks for the inspiration! I am working on my weight loss as well!

I so wish I could go to your event, I know it will be fabulous! I agree with the previous poster who requested one in the west... Utah would be awesome!

[Joy]

Hi Donna,

I really enjoy your blog and think you are the bees knees (well, what I really wanted to say was the "cat's ass" but thought that sounded too crass?)

Anyway, just wanted to let you know that you have indeed inspired me and I have started making various collages on canvas with old ephemera that I have. I am not a real "artsy" person but this has released a creative energy in me that is SO MUCH FUN!

Just wanted to say thank-you to you for inspiring me and giving me the courage to be creative without being self-conscious.

Hope you'll stop by for a visit...

:)

Thanks so much for coming to Spokane last weekend. The class was a 40th birthday gift from my bestest friend Thelma and we had a super time!! You shared inspiration and yourself - it is appreciated.

Cami

[Meghan E]

Congrats on the weight loss! That is super :)

BTW - are you coming to FL at all this year?

[cathy]

Donna,
I wish I could come to your Inspired event! Why are you located on the other side of the country?!!! Argh!

Congrats on the weight loss-you've inspired me there too. I can't tell you how many times in my life I've had a smaller pair of jeans as inspiration to lose weight! Haven't thought of doing that in a long time, but you've inspired me to buy a smaller pair of jeans and some new tennis shoes this week and start walking. Thinking of joining Weight Watchers too because NutriSystem didn't work for me when I tried it in the past. Whatever works, right?

Thank you for being such an inspiration in so many ways! :)
