I'm sharing my journey here, if you'd like to join in feel free, if you'd like to judge move on please. My life is being reinvented at 65 this is the year I'm having Gastric Bypass Surgery. Such a leap, such a change, such a chance.

If you're looking for a crafty creative blog I have several of those and the links are in the sidebar below. I'd love your comments and your support but if you feel you need to humiliate or criticize me please just move on and leave me in peace to climb my mountains and battle my demons by myself.

Woo Hoo Have to Share

per·se·ver·ance
ˌpərsəˈvirəns/
noun
  1. steadfastness in doing something despite difficulty or
 delay in achieving success.




OK I tip my hat to all of you that told me I just had to relax and let things happens and you were oh so right.  Today marks the first size down!  Woo Hoo the scales are being super kind to me this week.  I'm losing approximately 2 pounds a day.  I will take it as long as it comes!  I was about blown over this morning when I stepped on the scales to have them say I had lost 26 pounds.  Now if this isn't a motivator nothing is.  My brother asked me today if I was still happy with my decision to have Gastric ByPass Surgery, my answer without hesitation or delay was an unequivocal  YES !!!!


So I went out for a 20 minute walk today and felt so good about it.  Much better than just a few days ago.  The sun was shining the sky is blue and I could walk without dragging.  Pretty soon that hitch-hiker that sits on my back will be gone and 20 minutes will seem like a minute.  I can't wait.  

So until next time ----------
