Thank you for taking a moment to stop by and share in my journey. This journey started in February of 2009 and I am hoping to stay strong. Every time you leave a comment it truly encourages me to stay healthy. Thank you to everyone who has ever left a comment and to everyone who will leave a comment in the future. You would be surprised how easily you can encourage someone with just a few words. If you would like to see a little bit of where I was, please check out my first post on Day 1. I have been encouraged by so many other healthy bloggers out there as well. This journey will last me a life time because it truly has to be a lifestyle commitment. I also hope that you can be encouraged by my small triumphs. Thank you all for your support!

A Positive Way To Start My Day

I just wanted to share a small triumph in my journey. It has been almost exactly 3 months since I have started this journey. DAY 1 was on February 25, 2009 (actually the official first day was a couple days earlier) and I would just like to share a little positive thing that happened this morning. I stepped on the scale and was excited to see that the scale read (drum roll please!!)... 183.6!!
To some of you this may seem like a pretty high number but it was definitely higher. Even to me this seems like a pretty high number (which I am definitely surprised that I'm sharing) but as long as the number keeps going down til I'm at a healthy weight, then I will be happy. I have not been 183 in a long time. As a matter of fact, I think that when I was gaining weight, I actually skipped right over it on the way up (if that's possible.).

Well, I have to get going. I have a soccer game to coach this morning (and next week will be my last game... :-( lonely tear drop) and then we are moving... AGAIN. We have not had a very good experience where we are so we decided to move again. I HATE moving but we have been here for a month and already know that we can't stay. But where are moving to now is WAY better and a couple hundred dollars cheaper. Score for us!

Have a great Saturday everyone! And good luck to all you bloggers out there that are running races this weekend!!
