I got to my goal today!!!
Anette my sweet big sister. Thanks so much for the backflips and somersaults! I think the mental ones are safer for all who want to join in!! You should know all about the flips and somersaults with your trip to gymnastics. Are you getting mental practice there? haha I am so glad that all of my sisters had faith in me since most of the time that is something that I don't have a lot of in myself. I just knew that I had come to the end of my weight loss and 200.0 was the lowest that I was going to go to. I was beginnig to lose faith in myself. I need to know that I can come here and find the faith in me that I need. I look up to so many here and you are among the top of the list. Sending you love and lots of hugs. Can you tell that I love to hug? Everyone tells me that I give the best ones and that is because I have so much practice at it.
How lovely that on your Anniversary as you planned...you made your goal. aI sm very happy for you...and you should be soooo pround of yourself for all the efort getting here. Not just the weight lost but the journey to get there. It is not an easy journey...but the rewards are soooo awesome. It causes us to be reflective sometimes about....why didn't I do this sooner....would my life have been different if I had done this sooner....but what is....what is.We can only rejoice in the present.... and not live in the "what if's". Don't look back .....look at the wonderful life ahead of you.
Happy Anniversary.
Love, Marti

Marti, I think that you must read my mind. I so often think of why didn't I do this sooner and then I realize that I wasn't ready for it then. When God brought me to it was the time that I was ready for it physically and mentally right along with spiritually. I look forward to the trip ahead of me. I am so glad that it is a trip that isn't going to end since I am always going to able to experience the new and wonderful things in life that come to us all from one day to the next. Thanks so much for what you add to our OFF family and it is so good to see you back home again.
Our sweet patient Kathi! I have a hard time thinking of myself as a motivator. Not only to beginners but to anyone. Isn't today your anniversary too? I know that it is sometime right around ours. When is it? Sending love and hugs to you for your road trip. Isn't it wonderful that it is a one way ticket for this ride and not a round trip?
Our 35th wedding anniversary was Monday, June 9. That was a special day for me because I'm beginning my adventure through weight loss......
This is definitely a one-way trip for me...... I CAN'T wait to be where you are! But..... wait I will! Anything worth having is worth waiting for......
Hugs,
Kathi
