I would also like to thank everyone for the overwhelmingly nice response from the e-mail I sent out about my weight loss! I really appreciate all the kind words I have received
since then! Here are a few of the replies I received from that e-mail...
CARL, U GO! I THINK YOU LOOK GREAT! I LOST 21 POUNDS LAST YEAR WITH THE HELP OF DRINKING WATER AND WALKING. I PLAN ON HITTING THE WALKING AGAIN AS SOON AS MY BEAUTY SHOP GETS ON IT'S FEET BETTER AND I CAN SPEND MORE ME TIME. CHOLESTEROL DID IT FOR ME, AND AS FAR AS THE DRINKING GOES, THAT DROPS IT FAST! BEING A NON-DRINKER AND BACKING UP MY HUBBY RODNEY C IN HIS NOT DRINKING. I AM VERY PROUD OF YOU. (NOT TO OFFEND
ANYONE OUT THERE WHO DOES DRINK) YOU MADE THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR YOU! KEEP UP THAT GOOD WORK AND DO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO OTHERS .. THEY MIGHT BE JELLY-US. LOL.. pardon the pun

Carl, we know you wouldn't use drugs, but I am sure you have sniffed (butt)crack before. Just kidding. Hey I am thinking about buying this book. It has truly inspired you, right? Can you send me a picture of you now? Paula has not seen your weight loss and I am needing it for inspiration. Congrats on landing Gary with Raintree. Let me know when you guys are playing next so I can come watch. See ya, TST
Good for you Carl!,
It's sad to think that you had to resort to sending out that message to defend yourself. Just goes to show you who your true friends are. In the 12 years i have known you, i have never seen you favor drugs. Alcohol was your drug of choice and you have made the choice to live a happier
healthy lifestyle. When i first saw you i was in shock, i was happy for you but i detected a hint of sadness behind those pretty blue eyes and sweet smile. I felt that you had to go through a real rough time and more pain to get there, but in the end, you were just "glowing", you looked happy. I've always loved Carl for Carl...Big, small,drunk or sober. Because you're still you. Take care, -Pallas
I can attest to Carl and his sobriety! He isn't on yukky drugs, just a very effective diet. You look like when we were 16 again Carl and I'm proud of you. Don't let people knock you down, you have made many changes for the better and that's how it is going to stay. Apparently people have too much time on their hands if they are spreading rumors about Carl. I would like to bring to their
attention that there are many places here in town looking for volunteers in order to further their good causes. If you have enough time to be a spreader of bad
things, then you might consider volunteering. You will be a happier person in the end. -Bridget

Cudos to Carl!!! Some people can have a good time SOBER!!!! And he is looking GREAT! I am not surprised that small minds have nothing better to do than gossip, too bad more people can't see the good in life when it is right in front of them...but rather suggest bad. Carl you are a true rockstar and I am a #1 fan. Keep up the good work and remember that people who care support your endeavors. -Denise
Thanks Again!!! Hope to see you all soon!!!
Love Ya,
-Carl Lowe
