Vst Family....i Finally Made It!

  • Popular Post

Well today I finally saw 203 on the scale, that was my goal in order to change my screen name and post a picture (started this at 303). I did it!

My avatar is me from a couple days ago as I was just finishing up work. Not real fancy but, that is me 46 year old mom and wife. A woman first and foremost, who now thanks to hard work and determination now has a new lease on life.

I never thought I would post a picture but, it is almost liberating. I am just so happy thus my new name.

I am not finished with my journey, it has not been easy. I had an abscess causing a second surgery (my friends you know who I am), and pushing me back a bit but-I made it through and this site with all the support made a huge difference for me. To my husband, God blessed me when he allowed me to stand by your side, honey I love you.

So all of the new folks here....hold on, stand up, start walking, then run! You can do it!

Take care
