X-Post - Re-Birthday & 200 Pounds Gone!!!

Today is my Re-Birthday and I'm down 200 pounds from when I started this journey. WOO HOO!!!! I really mean, HOLY S**T!!! Who'd a thought!

This past year has been amazing. I have cheeks and collar bones, but no boobs or butt. Who cares! I have hip bones! I wasn't even sure what they were when I first felt them. My legs look like a Shar Pei . SharPei.jpg Shar Pei Puppy image by April51

Again I say, Who Cares! I am having a blast. I haven’t felt this good in many years. I am happy and healthy. I ask myself, “Why did I wait so long?” The Bible says, “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven”. This is my season. Don’t get me wrong. This hasn’t been a cure-all for all of life’s problems, but it sure comes close. Once again, today I love everyone.

Thanks Cira.

The baby is getting sooooo big. She is beautiful (of course - look at her mommy and daddy).

I'm pretty up right now. "WOO HOO", I say.
