6-month update

Nov 03, 2009

Ok, I'm a little behind since my 6 month anniversary was on October 29th, but here goes.
In the past 6 months I have lost a total of 77pounds, with an overall weight loss of 116 pounds.
A year ago I was a sedentary smoker with diabetes, sleep apnea and joint pain. Today I am a non-smoker, who runs 2 miles a day and can wear 4-inch heels! Oh yeah!!!
The past 6 months have been a whirlwind of wonder! I have learned that I do have self-control, that I can achieve goals and that nothing needs to get in the way of those goals, as long as I don't allow it to happen.
I have also learned that change is possible. That it is never too late and most of all I learned to love the face looking back at me in the mirror. I would not trade this for anything in the world! There is no food out  there that tastes as good as this feels!To be fully engaged in life once again is more wonderful than I ever imagined.  To hear the sound of my own laughter and realize that I am once again happy is a gift beyond measure.
Life is precious gift and I am finally enjoying it!!
Praise God for all He has done in my life! May it be to His glory!
