My beautiful DD.... my daughter .. my friend .... my coach and personal trainer had her muscle biopsy today ... totally pampered by medical and nursing staff all peers and friends she went under for the first time ... they did not do Twilight .. they did General Anesthetic and here she goes LOOPY LOOP LOOP ... BUT SMILING AND WITH HER TABLET AND HER ANDROID SHE REQUESTED PICS TO SHARE WITH HER FRIENDS ... WHO WILL TELL THIS SWEET SPIRIT NO? NOT I SAID HER MOM..... 

Up in recovery and getting ready to leave ... she is loopy but she smiles ... first thing she asks for is that I bring her her victory necklace ... passed on from another beautiful sista on here... we will keep passing it on too.... isn't she beautiful my 30 year old loopy loo? LOL she will ALWAYS be MY very own PRINCESS ... she is clean cut .. a hard worker.. a honor student and an outstanding citizen ... I am proud of her and take no shame in seeing her paying it forward too...

The first time I ran a 5K it was this beautiful young woman of mine encouraging me ... taking me with her running coach on the track ... telling me I could do it ... and guess what? the very 5K I ran I ran all the way ... tag teaming with my beautiful DD...

The 5Ks turned into 10Ks and we ran and ran and ran... it got so contagious even DS started running .. the joker sprinted all the way to the finish line and came back and got us ....
and today we all are running 5-10 and 20Ks YESSS!!!! on 53 year old knees that were told needed to be replaced because of the damage caused by excessive weight ... but it is not so today ... I HAVE POWER IN MY ACHILLES AND IN MY KNEES AND IN MY JOINTS AND I CAN RUN WOOT WOOT and I LOVE IT!!! I was running my old arse off and enjoying every minute of it ... there I go and I was not holding up the rear either...

it got better and better and I joined a running club and I run every morning at 4 am and I seek all the races I can participate in I don't care whether they are 5-10 or 20K just because MY DD SAID 'MOM YOU CAN RUN!"

Today I am still running!!! AND I CAPTURED IT ALL IN A JOURNAL A PICTURE A DAY!!!

How can anyone resist this soft spoken ... kind.. teddy bear of a girl .. a friend to all her friends ... a helper to all she sees in need... she is always singled out ... even when she does not try ... maybe the benefits of being tall?

Here she goes with Sean T. the maker of INSANITY workout ... at an event with her sorors... his arm is around my DD...

and in Florida at the Zumba Fitness Instructors Convention ... Beto sat on stage and held her hand...

and when she visited Dallas she could not resist going to the Cowboys Stadium and splitting in from of the cheerleaders quarters

on sitting on the star...


 AND THE BEST NEWS IS..... SHE WILL BE ABLE TO DO ALL THOSE THINGS AGAIN IN A MATTER OF JUST A FEW WEEKS ... WOOT WOOT .... WE ARE B.A.D. BLESSED AND DELIVERED INDEED

SO IT IS A WEEKEND OF CELEBRATION..... YES....
I WILL BE FINISHING UP MY SATIN DRESS AND DD SAID SHE WANTED TO LEARN TO SEW SO I'LL BE TEACHING HER IN OUR BRAND SPANKING NEW PROJECT RUNWAY MACHINE THAT SHE GAVE ME ....

I love to rock a gown ... even if it is to take out the Rena Ware and dress the dining room table and light the candles and have a candle lit dinner with DH right in my own house ... who needs somewhere to go to wear a gown ... oh .. can someone say fun??? there goes my new machine and the dress I am working on...

It seems like I am for-ever sewing...
In my Before ... two years ago I made a gown to re-affirm my vows .

when my DH spent months in the hospital recovering for a partial amputation of his lower limb he my dear friend, loyal supporter and husband always looked forward to my pictures a day.... BTW he is the photographer who mostly snaps our pics...

So this is me today ... I wore the pink dress to work and to bring my DD to her scheduled muscle biopsy surgery ... and a couple days ago I wore the white embroidered outfit that I am going to TRY TO LEARN how to do on my embroidery machine ... woot I have lots to learn ...

And here I go with MINIFINI or FINIBEAU or BEAUFINI he responds to all three our itty bitty Finigan Beau who like is counterpart Chiquitita has the makings of an escape artist LOL


 thanks for allowing me to share another day in my journey A PICTURE A DAY KEEPS THE POUNDS AND THE INCHES AWAY....

APOLOGIES IN ADVANCE IF I OFFEND ANYONE ... PLEASE FEEL FREE TO IGNORE MY POSTING ... I AM NEITHER TRYING TO BE BOASTFUL .. NOR COQUETTISH ... I AM JUST PAYING FORWARD WITH THE WORDS OF MY TESTIMONY THANKING MY HIGHER POWER FOR GRACE AND MERCY AND FAVOR .... 

OH I WILL NOT CURSE MY FIRE ... I KNOW THERE IS VICTORY IN MY VALLEY AND I WILL PURSUE!!!!  I WILL EMBRACE JOY OVER MISERY AND I WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN TO ME ... I WILL TRAVAIL AND I WILL SHARE MY GOOD TIMES AND MY BAD TIMES .... IT IS WHAT I LOVE TO DO ....

OH... did I ever tell you that the idea for the journal a picture a day came about from me seeing my daughter's picture collages of her losing weight ... yup .. there is nothing new under the sun LOL ....


She even takes me dancing ... LOL .. this is us at an event sponsored by her sorors where they raised scholarship monies for students in need ...


THE BEST THING IS THAT SHE WILL BE DOING ALL THESE THINGS AGAIN .... SOON ... THERE IS NO STOPPING US .. WE ARE TOO BLESSED...

happy weekend everyone ... I will compile and share a video of 4 years and 4 months rocking an outfit each day down loser and maintenance lane ... yes I did it ... and how much money did I save wearing in fabric the money that I would have spent splurging on food ... my empowerment journal has kept me grounded... so have the pictures of my before ... I am that same woman in a smaller frame ... her deliverance is my release and my release is her deliverance....

HOOT for DD. AND

Fuckem if they can't look at a ****** picture. For crying out loud, it is a breath of fresh air to see your happy family and happy life in bold, bright color photos. I love it and my life wouldn't be the same without it. Some days I'm glad to see you smiling so I know at least one of us is.

That is why I log on your board before I go to any of the other OH boards. Nice to see smiles and good senses of humor.
