Hi Dottie!

Yes! It does!

You were having a crisis about your faith (as I understand it), then, before many of us wrote to you, Tels told us your Church called you and you were OK. And what a Church! I've been to a (mainly) lesbian and gay oriented church, Metropolitan Community Church, I think, but never such a pro-trans church as yours. I think you are fine!

So, what's your plan for losing weight? Did you say it was a secret? I guess you have cold, snow and very short days to deal with. Are you off work during daylight? Have you ever done crosscountry skiing? I used to do that when I lived in Maine. I'd do it in daylight on weekends and also on this golf course near us in the evenings; it was pretty well lighted! You could probably get skis pretty cheap at a thrift store. Exercising out in the cold can burn lots of calories.
