Love being able to do my job better since the weight loss

I had a proud moment this evening. I rescued a very obese cat from a storm drain this evening. I was able to fit down the manhole cover with no problem. I got in my truck thought to myself wow 15 months ago that would not have been possible. I would have need assistance with the cat.

I love my new life!!

I have one lady that tells me that all the time. I believe she is just jealous that I have lost the weight. I have told her the last few times that I am not losing anymore weight, but I am still losing inches. I have no control over my body.

Thanks for asking about my training. It is slow right now due to working nights, but last night was my last night shift. I will be able to go to the gym in the afternoon with hubby and that will help.
