Thanks B, Patience is a virtue as my Mom used to say.. I had to learn to be patient..I wanted to get healthy and thin quickly.. but it doesn't work that way.. A new life is what I have and I hope to h
a year ago I was getting prepared for my surgery.. I had 2 weeks of pre-op diet to do.. I started right after Christmas... I was so ready ..
My weight was at it's highest ever.. @ 5' 0 " tall I weighed 200 lbs.. I was steadily ruining my health.. My diabetes was out of control, My blood pressure was climbing daily and I could not walk, or do anything physical without pain in my back and knees. I lived in my recliner. Most days I ate myself into oblivion and slept in my chair.. I would walk back to my office (in my home) and do what I had to but that was my only exercise... Today, I have lost almost 60 lbs.. I am so happy about the Holidays this year.. I have shopped in every Mall and walmart in our area.. walking all day with my grandaughters who are 18, 14 and 8... This past week I went to San Antonio with my oldest grandaughter to see her boyfriend graduate from basic training @ Lackland AFB.. it was bitterly cold and we walked everywhere.. I could never have done that a year ago... The band works folks, if you work it... I have some more lbs to lose and I am staying on track but I am truly happy today after many years of being miserable... I wish everyone a very Happy and Healthy Christmas and New Year.. My New Year's resolution will be to keep doing what I am doing and add some more walking and encourage my family to get healthy....
