Today is the Day!

It's the day many of us have been waiting for... especially those of us who have been planning Barbara's Buddies.

This morning, we announced the five people who were selected to join Barbara in her quest to get healthy. There were soooo many interesting and emotional stories for us, that it was almost an impossible task.

This is a cause that Barbara has really taken to heart, and she really wants to work and get a great group so that we can all get healthy.

The five Buddies are:

• Fred Barnes from Gastonia is concerned about his diabetes.
  
• Megan Cahill from Cornelius says she's struggled with weight for most of her life.
  
• Amy Duncan is a wife and mother of two who says she needs accountability.
  
• Frankie Sarvis is concerns about diabetes and cholesterol.
  
• Darlene Weaver says she and her family just moved here from Atlanta and they really need to get into shape and lose weight.

For the people that weren't listed, we still want you to be a part of this process. This is a teambuilding experience and we really need to hold one another accountable.

If you haven't already e-mail us, join our online support group. E-mail us at BarbarasBuddies@wbtv.com. We want to hear from you and hear your stories.



Remember... today is the first day of the rest of your HEALTHY life!
