Earlier this week I posted about my weight gain while at King's Island.  I think I have a tendency to freak out about the negative and overlook the postive.  So, I wanted to post about the positive aspects of our trip.
 
 I went to King's Island for 3 days with my husband and some friends.  I walked all three days.  I didn't even take my scooter.  Last year I had to ride my scooter.  Not this year!  I have a bad back and was afraid it would be too much but my back didn't hurt at all!  I got sore feet and banged up for a few of the rides but so did everyone else. 
  I made good food choices (except for a little tasting of my husbands goodies).  I thought after the first day I would be really sore or stiff for day 2.  But I wasn't.... I made it all three days and then stopped at a mall to shop on the way home. 
  I walked all the stairs to the water rides.  One day it wasn't crowded so we had to climb them all at the same time...no line to give us a break....and I did it.  I climbed like 7 flights and didn't have a heart attack and pass out. 
  I did fit in all of the rides. Even the ones I was afraid my boobies would make difficult!  I was at the water park in my suit and I don't even think that anyone made a nasty comment about my size.  While this is not something that upsets me too much it was nice not to have to deal with it.  *I tend to get mouthy with folks when they poke fun at me or others.
  Before we left I was afaid it would be too much for me.  While I did experience some discomfort from the sun (I have lupus.)  It was no big deal.  It was like I was a normal person.

Sounds like you had fun.  And focusing on the positive can be difficult some times can't it.  But I am glad that you were able to see past  the negatives you were feeling and talk about the positive. 
I am very proud of you!!
Have a great week sweetie!!
Blessings to you all, Leah
