ABBY!!!  I got so many comments about the episode this week and how moved they were by Abby and her story.  She is such a special person and when she got to the moment where she basically threw herself on the sword for her team, it just brought a tear to my eye.  I think that Abby's story is very important because we can all learn something from it and I have always talked about “triumph of the spirit” and she is the definition of that phrase.  Life, or rather death, slapped her in the face and she was looking for a way to be happy and love again, and while she was staying at the ranch with Jillian and I, she was able to find it again.  Abby is a true example of picking yourself up and getting back into the game of life under the absolute worst conditions.  I know that Abby has changed and when I saw her “where are they now” segment and saw her speaking to that group, she had such a confidence in her face and hope in her eye.  I love that woman so much and feel grateful that she shared her story with all of us.  On a side note, there was one interview bite where she called Tracy crazy and I thought it was hilarious.  Just her delivery on that just cracked me up.  I also thought it was so cool that Derek Jeter was a part of our show and the challenge was kind of fun.  Season 8 has been a great group of people and them being so honest and open has hopefully inspired you to make a change in your life.  Start living a healthy lifestyle today!!!  It is never too late!!!
