My journey (2 years later)

In October of 2008 I decided I needed to do something about my weight when my PCP wanted to put me on insulin.  I thought that Kaiser would not consider me because I was a lightweight.  But, because of my diabetes I could go through their program.  I was a model student for the program and lost my 10% and had surgery in 6 months.  Five months out of surgery I hit my goal and at 10 months I has PS.  I am loving life and my ability to keep up with my daughter who is four.  Just had to share how happy I have been with my decision and how my life has been rejuvenated!!

You have done so well. You are such an inspiration to all of us! You are one of my OH Hero's!

You know I had that same red shirt at one time. Is it Lane Bryant? I can't remember if that is where I got mine! I did not hold on to any of my old clothes.

Thank you for sharing with us and being you!

It sure is good C'ING LESS OF ME!

 

We could learn a lot from crayons: 
some are sharp, some are pretty, 
some are dull, some have weird names, 
& all are different colors....but they

ALL exist very nicely in the same box.

Thanks Barb,

I like to think that all of my friends here on Oh and in person have been my greatest cheerleaders!!  If we do not support each other we will not succeed!!  Thanks for being such a supportive friend!

We will miss you all, Ms V says Hi and hugs to you all!!

Hey Hey Hey!  As usual, a day late and a dime short..but just had to catch up with the rest and say Congratulations!  You certainly are a great example of how this tool works when used properly.   If you're like me, you wonder where the time went...how life has changed for the better and how supporting others on this journey is our 'reward'.  Soooooo proud of You!!
Gonna miss you and the rugrat this weekend...we need to do another Bar B Q!! ^_^
