  3. Hi Ruby:Girl, I've missed seeing you on TV lately. I know you are in Australia filming and book signing. But, I'm ready to see my Ruby again! In the photo with the Koala, you look even THINNER! I'm so proud of you. You're just such a wonderful inspiration to those women out there who think there is no way out of their weight problem. May God bless you, and come back soon Shane!! You're probably too young to remember the movie with Alan Ladd called Shane, huh? LOL

  6. I just want to wish Ruby, Georgia, and all of you a very Merry Christmas/Happy Holiday. I hope you are all with someone you love, and who loves you back. And most important, that you find yourself, loving yourself. Ruby, I think of you often, * I hope that doesn't sound too weird). I hope you are doing well, and anticipate your return to Style in February. May this Holiday season fill you with Peace, Love, Health and Happiness. *My good news, I've lost 123 pounds so far!! YAY!!!* With Much Love, Jojo

  7. Hello Ruby, I am a therapist who is counseling Linda since Februray 2009. She is bed-bound for the last 14 months and weighs over 360 pounds (down from being over 700). She has a broken leg and multiple health problems, She has no computer because she has been in a nursing home--she is on medicaid. Is there any way you could speak with her? I just read your book and will be giving it to her. It is tough for her to read because shes also has macular degeneration. She is 52 years old and has been in this nursing home for many years. She needs encouragement even though she is an encourager to others. Annette Kadash

  10. Ruby, may God Bless you in 2010 as you continue on your weight loss journey. I have watched your show and am so inspired by you. I have struggled with weight my whole life and am beginning my weight loss journey in 2010 as well.

  11. It has been a while since I've written on this blog. I have had weight problems and fluctuations all my life. I am 48 years old, and have now topped out at a VERY scary 271 pounds...and I'm only 5'2". I've been basically unemployed, out of my field, for five years. I was able to temp from 2004 (time of my last layoff) through June of 2007, but then, even all the temp jobs have dried up in this lousy city (Chicago). I have a masters degree, and about twenty years of experience in my field, but it doesn't matter. And so with this unemployment and sort of bad home life (living with a sister with whom I don't get along, a brother whom I often fight, and my 81-year-old mother...yes, a dysfunctional household. My brother's out of work as well, and my sister hates her life and her miserable job)...I was reached maximum depression and stress levels last year, and am TRYING to make changes this year. I wish I could afford therapy, because I'm a roller coaster of emotions, mostly bad.

  15. Hi Ruby, I just love your show, its so down to earth and honest. I now use the internet to keep up with as because like so many we have had to tighten our belts and give up things like cable TV. Keep up the good work you really are an inspiration to us all. God Bless!

  16. Ruby, I am so proud of you and can't wait to see your accomplishments on your Feb. show. I have battled with weight loss for over 20 years so I know your feelings. I haven't given up and maybe one day I can say finally I have won this battle.

  21. I just watched the new episode of Ruby and am hoping that she is able to meet her goal. I think she is such a neat person and would love to be her next door neighbor. Good luck to Ruby in the future and keep up the good work. I was amazed at how nice she looked in those jeans. She is an inspiration to more people than she might even realize. You go girl!!!

  24. Ruby, I watch your show and enjoy it so much. I see you on Tv and tell my kids wow ....Ruby is so beautiful.. I know that you will suceed in your weight loss.. I tell my kids that if you want something in life you must first have faith.. then see yourself self there and then second you must confess it * then it will happen.. I know that with God all things are possible.. the most powerful tool that we have is our tongue. we have the power to use it and bless or the power to use it and curse our self and well as others.. never accept neg. things that people have spoken on you ..its a curse they put.. always know who you are and where you stand in life ** God has made you so beautiful and unique in his image.. Take Care Love ya, Big Fan ****** Marie

  25. Ruby I was so sad that the season ended and happy when you came back!You look marvolous!!!!!!!!!! I cant say any thing about your situation with Denny.Just be real careful.Its your life and seems you have your head on straight.I dont want him to break your heart again.Looking out side in is different.I sure have made my mistakes but you know we are the ones who have to deal with our own decisions.He is a very good looking man.But...looks are only skin deep.I am torn. You deserve to be happy ******** Im sure there is more than meets the eye.A long history.He has always been there even though you didnt give in.Most guys would have been long gone.He does seem genuine.I really want for him to be real for you and that is so hard to gauge.You both have been there for each other threw loss and hard times and that is so important too.Good luck ,stay strong,God Bless you Ruby Bev from Wisconsin

  27. Hi Ruby, I live in England, so I have been watching your series a bit later than most people, and have loved watching you I really admire the way you have been so determined to lose the weight through healthy eating and exercise, do you have any plans to come to London in the near future, at the moment because we have our National Health Service a lot of people are having gastric band surgery, because they think its the only option, so somebody like you would inspire so many english people just like you have in America. Good luck with the rest of your journey Love Shirley
