Now that summer is coming to a close....
Sep 22, 2009
I wonder how this winter will be. Will I still be the one to run around with no jacket and wearing sandals while everyone else is wearing layers upon layers of clothes, or will I now become one of them? Things have already started the change in that area. These last couple of days that it's been cooler and rainy, I've had to put on clothes to stay warm. I used to just open the windows and enjoy the cool air. Reflecting back on this summer brings to mind all the things I've done (hence the reason for not blogging much anymore!). All the trips, the walks, the hikes, the days at the lake....Getting to spend more time doing the things I enjoy doing instead of sitting at home complaining about how hot and muggy it is outside. Guess loosing a hundred pounds does that to a person. OK, 97, but still. I'm that close! Other wow moments: hiking 3 miles and not phasing me.... being able to wear an XL shirt....down to size 20 jeans instead of those 28s....cleaning out my entire closet and not even attempting to refill it (yet!). I still have days when I'm hanging out with family and friends and just want to eat whatever it is they're eating (usually something greasy or high in sugar) but it's getting better. I'm making better decisions, I haven't gotten sick in quite a while now and I know my limits. And, of course, there are things I need to work on (IE. water intake). This is definitely a long work in progress and something you really have to work at, but I definitely would not change it for anything. I'm happy I made the decision and I'm sticking to it the best I can.If anyone is reading this....how are you doing? How are things going?
