Let me start by saying my hubby does not shop and I mean NEVER, he hates it. So I was shocked this year when a present for me from "Santa" showed up at the house (normally is would show up at our daughter's since my hubby usually has her shop and him pay, lol). Anyway, it was quite funny when I opened my present on Christmas Eve, my hubby is quite funny and has a great since of humor, well a couple of weeks before Christmas it was really windy our area (wind gusts between 50-70 mph) and I commented "Wow how do small people stay upright in the wind?" I am no where near as small as some people and I was struggling with the wind. So when I opened my gift this is what he had put in it, he wrapped it in a square Kleenex box, on top was a few scratch lottery tickets, then two rocks and when I pulled them out of the box he said "one is for your right pocked and one is for your left pocket, so on windy days you don't get blown away!" We all laughed so hard and I took it for the compliment it was meant to be and I will cherish those rocks forever...But WAIT! Under the rocks was a beautiful heart shaped Diamond Necklace (remember I said hubby does not shop, well he did and our kids didn't even know what he bought until I opened it!) I was stunned and have worn it since I opened my gift. I think hubby is enjoying my new transformation as much as I am, he always tells me I am always moving now and seem to never stop, which I don't I can't sit still anymore and I Love it!!

It will hurt. It will take time. It will require dedication. It will require willpower. It requires sacrifice. There will be temptation. But, I promise you, when you reach your goal, it's WORTH IT! (Author Unknown). I feel this sums up my ongoing journey to a healthier me!
