I am 44 today and Blessed to Be Here!
Not only am I forty four 
today, but this is my 8 month anniversary from wls... 
Last year at this time, I was hating myself 
and what I had become. I made myself a promise 
that I would be a healthier slimmer person. I am so proud of myself for succeeding.
This year I am making myself a promise that on my 45th I will be at goal which is 135-145 lbs. 
God willing I shall be there... 
I just wanted to share something exciting with my fellow wls friends.
Last week was Spring break, and we took the kids to Gatlinburg, TN. We went to Dollywood, and I walked the whole park as though I were a teen.
I could fit and ride rides I have not been on since High School! 
Kelli and I went to Girl Scout camp this weekend..I stood on my feet for 12 hours, cooking meals for 240 girls.
Not only was I NOT TIRED/EXHAUSTED 
- I had energy to keep going that evening! 
I wanted to say, despite it all, it was worth it! 
God is Good- We have all been blessed with the miracle of a second chance!

Happy Birthday!!! 
Sounds like you had a great time on your trip. Isn't it wonderful to be able to walk around and still have some energy?? Even though my job situation isn't going too well right now, the fact that I can handle the PHYSICAL demands of this job (on my feet, walking a lot during the day, etc) is a big deal!!
Hang in there. You WILL be down to your goal by your next birthday!!
