6 Flags ... Priceless!
2 days ago
We had the best time .. went on all kinds of crazy rides .. and the best part was I didn't have to worry if I'd fit or if the belts would fit me.. last year at this time I would have never even have thought about going .. I'm so glad we went and we plan to go next year too. 
Tickets-$100.00.. Paying to park-$15.00.. fitting on everything - PRICELESS!!! .. having the best time with my husband and children also extremely priceless!

I just realized..
on August 4, 2008 5:13 pm
that today is the 4th..lol.. So today I am 8 months out!!.. the time has gone by so fast .. it's hard to believe it's been 8 months already. I saw my PCP today he said I looked great and was very happy with my progress, as am I! .. I went thru my "old" clothes again today .. I am having such a hard time giving them up .. a good amount of the clothes I never even wore. So many things had tags on still because I bought them thinking that it would fit and when I got it home it was too small .. I hate to try things on in the store .. but now I really have to. I do love being a smaller size I was a 30/32 I am now a 20.. it's just crazy to look at the old stuff and wonder how I ever wore it. It just looks so big, I guess I never realized how big I was. It makes me sad now. All those years I was over weight.. not even over weight extremely over weight.. and very unhealthy.. why did I let myself get that way?.. I may never truly understand that.
But I am a new me and I love the new me.. and I am learning that it is great to look great!.. and even more important is to feel GREAT!!!
