Way to go Gorgeous, Michaela! Congratulations on your weight loss!! Awesome progress. You were always gorgeous and now you'll be too hot for the panel ; ). What a great surprise from Magic Johnson today! She's so deserving of a really special moment! Michaela is a real woman with super intelligence. She's always looked fabulous to me and she will be even better looking now and I know it means a lot to her to have lost the 20 pounds. I appreciate her smart lady-like appearance each day to inspire other women to aspire to be the same. She's real and refreshing! She's inspired many "thick" girls out there to shed a few pounds to look sleeker and feel better! Take care and God bless. signed, thinkstraight

Michaela: I am very proud of your weight loss accomplishments! Congratulations!

I have lost alot of weight and it takes strength and determination.

Again---Way to go!

What a great inspiration! I have had Two gastric bypass surgeries(one redo) and a lifetime of being overweight,obese,and any other name you want to give it, but as one who has really tried and failed at every attempt of having a healthy appearence, I will try it again after watching Michaela make it, I only hope and pray you can maintain your success.I have lost tons only to gain it back...
