Making Room for The New
Nov 14, 2011
It feels wonderful to be fitting into a size 14 pant ( could fit a 12 if my lower abdomen was a little smaller), That will happen soon enough.
I am finally able to shop in the regular womens clothes and not at the larger womens stores. YIPPIE
So Blessed
Nov 13, 2011
I was able to walk today 5 miles without being winded, and I was able to out stride my hubby for the first time ever. It felt wonderful.
I am also so blessed to have a husband and children who have supported my every step. They watch over me and encourage me every day. I am also blessed to have found this site, where I can read and gain reinforcements from all of you
Have a terrific Sunday all!
