Just last week I lost a total of seven pounds I had been on a stall for three months, but I now know that my body will rest sometimes like I'm losing to fast and it needs to catch up.  Giving God all the Glory I have started to lose again. My hope is I will be under two hundred by my birthday.

Well it's been a little while since I last wrote I had nothing to say.  I've had surgery on my right leg and it was more painful then having my last child natural that weighed 9 lbs 15oz.  It's a little over two weeks and I feel a little better. I'm now walking around with one straight leg and one bow leg.  The doctor said he had to straighten the leg. Both men and women have always  talked about how pretty my big bow legs were so now I have lost weight my legs are smaller and I only have one bow leg.  I must give God the glory for bringing me through the surgery but it will look a little strange walking with one straight leg and one bow.(smile)  I have been on a stall with my weight since Jan. 2009 but today always giving God the Glory I weight 214 down from 219 Like James Brown said "I Feel Good"  so onward and downward I go.  To anyone that may read this I still say It's Never to Late. 

I have been very bad for not writing more often. I read  all most daily, but most of the time I feel like I have nothing to give.  But I am wrong. I started my journey to LIFE at a late time in my life.  Maybe there is someone else out there thinking about doing this at a more senior time in there life and I should say that it is okay. I couldn't even walk a city block, I couldn't walk two houses down my street. My back hurt all the time my knees hurt and my feelings hurt I had to depend on my mother and grandchildren to help me do everything including oil my legs after a shower. It's sad to say that not until my mother died did I realize I needed to try to live I no longer had her to depend on, I chose life. This has not been hard for me at all God has been very good to me. I no longer have back pain and I only have to take one pill for diabetes and I hope that will inprove.  I'm going to have knee surgery on Feb 25, 2009 I KILLED my right knee with all the weight it have to carry for all those years but again I say God is good. I had this surgery for my health and I will tell you I wanted to look better.  I know I can't  take away the year and I think I look good.for an old girl.

It has been a long time since I last wrote anything down, I feel so blessed. It has been one year and four days since I started this wonderful journey. I have lost 120 pounds in one year.  Never would that have happened if I had continued on my own. I think about how worried both of my parents were because I had gained so much weight.  They would have been so happy for me.  I feel better both mentally and physically.  I no longer take medicine for depression I'm still on meds for diabetis(sp). but not as much.  My biggest problem is even though I've lost so much weight my behind is going down slow, but it's all good I 'm just happy How I look and feel.
