Has It Been Two Years Already????
OMG! Two years ago today, I started this wonderful journey that would change me forever. Not just on the outside, but also on the inside.
Little did I know that along the way, I would make wonderful friends and form deper connections with those I already knew. That I would be blessed with so much support as I went through each adventure. That there would be someone there to pick me up when I fell, to laugh with me, or to cry with me when things were not right. Someone who understood what it was like to have a love affair with Ben and Jerry. Someone to help keep me on the straight and narrow.
Little did I know that I would be admired for my physical activity level. That I would run 5K's without hesitation. That I would CRAVE being active while sitting at my desk at work. That I would be the one who was ahead and not behind.
Little did I know that I would become a source of information and inspiration. That I would be able to provide guidenance to those behind me, in the way that those ahead of me have done. That I would be able to "pay it forward". That I would provide inspiration to someone just by telling them my story.
Little did I know that I would be alive.
My doctor is a God send. He tells me that I did all of the work, but I remind him that it was HE who made doing the work worth doing. He gave me a tool that actaully works. He has been there for me any time that I have needed him.
And this board....well, what can I say? There aren't enough words to express my gratitude to those ahead of me who have guided me along with their knowledge and experience. But, I will say....thank you.....
And to those behind me.....thank you for reminding me daily of where I came from and how I got to where I am today.
So, as I embark on my next adventure......plastic surgery......thanks to Jackie, I am ready!!!!
