Shortening weekend .... STOP MONDAY!!!

YIKES .... it is MONDAY .... ALREADY .... why must the weekend speed on by???? it seems like just yesterday morning I was squatting in my basement trying to keep my doggies away from the ferret's vites .... LOL ... they hate their vites but they LOVE the ferret's vites ... what gives????

I had an awesome time with my DD instructing at Wright Movez ... an awesome taster of Bokwa followed by Zumba .... I came home totally energized and had the urge to go to the house of praise and I am glad I did ... 

I pulled out my outfit that may have seemed totally inappropriate for church but hey ... He said 'come as you are' and I am doing just that ... so judge me not is my MO... and of course I took a picture of my labels ... because a weight loss of 203 pounds maintained at 6 years 2 months out is a daily celebration for me at least...  I took my XS jumpsuit and topped it with a suede Size 0 Ann Taylors jacket and made it totally 'churchy' in my book LOL ... and I wore my big heels and I danced and shouted and praised like I was wearing slippers on my feet .... these bad boys were COMFY!!!

I remember going to church before my WLS on 2/5/07 and receiving an awesome 'thank you for your generosity' plaque that was a total surprise ... and someone had taken my picture .... I am so glad for that picture of me then that I compare with me today in a collage .... BEFORE AND NOW...

I had such an awesome fun time in the house of praise ... a place that would always welcome me unconditionally ... when I got home I was soooooooooooooo blissfully exhausted I had no appetite for dinner ... but the body needs nourishment so I sat on my bed and enjoyed an awesome mug of steel oats with raisins and apples and added protein that my DH made ... I ate close to half of it and was totally satisfied and ready to relax the rest of the evening .... before I knew it I was out like a light the TV program that I decided to watch wound up watching me instead LOL...

and in the blink of an eye from Friday to YIKES ... HERE IT IS MONDAY AGAIN!!!!! why must you rush on in MONDAY??? you are shortening my weekend .... so I am off to work ... and writing another GOOFY thread ... in my digital empowerment journal 'A Picture a Day Keeps the Pounds and the Inches Away' a fun an goofy tool that I made up and it is working for me .... I have tracked it all ... my life that is ... pre.. post... during and now .... because I love pictures and pictures are awesome memories as well as a powerful empowerment tool that is working for ME... on MY JOURNEY....

BEFORE AND AFTER ... I AM ME .... FAT AND SLIM .... I will never forget ... we walk hands in hands .... her deliverance is my release and my release is her deliverance ... this is MY WALK away from morbid obesity ... one day at a time .. one choice at a time ... I am rocking it and having fun with it ... with health and mobility I have the quality of life that obesity related disease all in remission now tried to restrain....

Thanks for allowing me to share ... SNIPPETS OF MY JOURNEY...... "there is joy and there is misery in equal measures in this world ... I am embracing JOY and making it happen to me ... of course misery is there ... but I am NOT letting it in...."

Thanks for sharing your story and pictures with us. I always live your outfits! I love Ann Taylor too. Have a great Monday!

Thank you Karen .... it seems like it was Friday and then Monday with very little time span in between it went by so fast ... and this IS one crazy Monday ... just now coming up for a bit of air and to heat up my lunch ... whatever it is that my husband packed for me ...   I hope it is a pleasant surprise...

I am pretty sure every time I look at your pictures you look younger then the day before.  How is that possible?  And how come I can't get that magic to happen to me.  lol  You look great, I am glad the picture thing works for you, it seems to make me nuts so i am avoiding taking any pics of me until my head is in a better place.  Yesterday my beloved Kymber started showing all the signs and symptoms of ED, we were scared for HD now ED instead.  My heart is breaking.  We will know for sure soon.

ohhhhhhhhh no .... sending positive energy and bright healing light Kymber's way ..... please keep us posted ....

Thanks, seeing her limping around is breaking my heart.  I was so scared that she could develop hip dysplasia I never even though her odd gait could be from elbow dysplasia, which after reading about it the front leg problem is worse then the back.  I really hope it is mild and she will be okay I can't imagine losing her.

Thank you for posting that. You give me hope and inspiration!

Thank you Suz ... your support inspired me!!! Sistas on the journey!
