9 Month anniversary
Jun 17, 2009
Ok - I made it this far. 9 months and counting...I'm down 97 lbs.!!! That 100 lb. mark is sooooo close. I keep waiting for the day it's here! This is where I apply the "one day at a time" principal. If I keep doing what I am supposed to do, success will follow. (But mommy, I want it now!!!)
I find I am trying all kinds of things that I used to hide from before. I am sharing a pic from a wedding I went to a couple of weekends ago. I went by myself to a co-workers wedding. I went alone, got dressed up, and didn't stay quietly in the background.
Last night I played softball with my daughter's softball team. We had a parents vs. the kids game to end the season. It was a blast! The girls called the adults "Team Geritol". I made an absolute fool of myself. I fell down running the bases...everyone thought I broke my arm or my leg. I flipped head over heels, landed on my back, then continued to crawl like a crab backwards toward the base... and I was safe!!! Everyone laughed their asses off! (after they were sure they didn't need to call an ambulance!) I am so sore today. I scraped my knees really good, and my arm, and my shoulder, and my wrist is swollen...but I'm OK!!! I really did have a good time...
Bottom line...I'm glad...REALLY GLAD...I'm LIVING life. No more hiding. And that, my friend, ain't bad.
