Camping over the holiday weekend was a blast. We went over to the KOA in Leavenworth. I was able to do some hiking down to the river and actually have no problem making it back up the hill! Before I never would have attempted it for the fear of not making it back up! I also got the courage up to play volleyball again. This is a big victory for me since this used to be my game back in high school and havent picked up a ball for over 15 yrs. We played together as a family instead of me always watching from the sidelines. It felt so good to get out there! Granted I wasnt as good as I used to be, but pleasantly surprised myself at what I was able to do...I was still pretty good and my kids were impressed and said I was one of the best ones out there! The next day my shoulder was aching from all the over hand serving and my arms were so bruised from all the bumping....but totally worth it in the end. Cant wait to get out there and play some more! My kids are actually really good at it too...they must have got their mama's talent!! lol. Im starting to feel like my old self again, except for with excess skin hanging off me. I really need to get to the gym and get into some kind of strength training to hopefully offset some of the skin issues. Maybe build a little muscle underneath it. I know the losing is going to get tougher now that Im passed 6 months but hopefully I will continue to lose and get to goal. One day at a time.
