My Birthday........
Good Sunny Morning to everyone. Today is my birthday - not my re-birthday, but my actual physical birthday. Today I am 42 and have been reflecting on some wonderful things.
1) I weigh less now then I ever remember weighing
2) At 40 I weighed 351------today 190
3) When I lose 15 more pounds - I will be HALF the person I use to be
4) Today my confidence allowed me to put on a new shorter skirt with boots and walk the long way from the parking garage so that I could smile at the traffic as I walked.
5) I am wearing a ladies extra large skirt versus a womans 34/5X from two years ago.
6) I have reservations in September to ride the mules down into the Grand Canyon - which was a "reward" for having reached my first goal of under 200 pounds. (For those who don't know - you must weigh less then 200 to be allowed to ride the mules.)
7) I have many wonderful supportive people around me who have not "left" my side in this journey.
8) I now run part of every walk I take.........
LIFE is good and I have been very blessed! On this my birthday I think it is appropriate to thank my parents who brought me into this world, raised me to be the person I am and also made this entire journey possible by paying for the surgery when my insurance would not. Thank-you mom and dad!
Have a wonderful day - I plan too!!!!!!!!!
