I turn 42 today
and I am in such a much better place than I was last year at this time.
Last year I was 93 pounds heavier.
That still amazes me to think that I’ve lost that amount of weight.
Every year on my birthday, like a lot of people I think, I promise myself that the following year I will be a lot thinner and healthier.
Well this is the first year that I actually kept my promise to myself and what a wonderful feeling that is.
I know so many people starting out on the weight loss journey feel like they have so far to go and it seems like you will never get there and it will take forever.
But you need to start today or get back on track today and just move forward.
Yup it doesnt happen overnight that is true but it will happen if you work hard at it and stick to it.
A year really isn’t that long a time if you think about it.
It took a lot longer than that to put the weight on.
So what if it took 2 yrs. or 5 yrs. it would still all be worth it right?
I hope all my buddies are well and going to have a wonderful day
I know I am
I am feeling very blessed and very proud today and just wanted to share that with you.
Hugs everyone

WOW… congrats on losing 93 pounds in a year. That is amazing. It took me over 10 years to get it off. Mind you I was not thinking about a diet that whole time of course. Good for you.
What an inspiration you are for those who have to lose a lot. Thank you for sharing.
