Bladen and Liz - one of my favorite things to hear is when they accomplish something on their own and happily cry, "I did it!!" with a big grin on their faces.....
Sunday, April 15, 2012 - "I did it!!"
June, 2010. I was weighing in at Dr. McFarland's office, and was stopped cold by the number on the scale. I knew then that I was killing myself, slowly, but surely. I gave up.
After a long process before and after my surgery in February, I can say that today I am at my goal weight. I want to shout it from the roof tops, this victory I feel, but I am keeping the numbers to myself. Not to Andy, not to the girls, not to Jackie. Not to any human. It is mine and mine alone - but I will say that it feels so wonderful to have had everyone at my side, seeing me through the journey.
I never dreamed that day in June that I could do this - that the will to succeed was too impeded by the past failures and the amount necessary. But it is done.
"I DID IT!!"
