57 years OLD

1/12/14

130 lbs

60 years YOUNG

GOAL

still 5'3

love showing my stats

there are not enough H's to describe how healthy and very happy i feel

i am retired

3 years ago i would sleep til 10:00 am!!!

didn't see that much reason to get up

nothing special to do, or just didn't want to go out

in the dictionary next to the word "miserable" is my picture (DH very sad when he read that, me too )

now, my internal clock goes off daily at 7:50 am - and i get up excited ready for a new day

i am always running here, there and everywhere

do my volunteer work which i love

just "stuff" that keeps me busy

the age "issue" does bother me a bit

trying to deal with that

but, i am as old as i feel

and i feel very YOUNG

but my mom said to me this morning these exact words..........

"kathy i can't believe how old you are!! "

i am pretty sure she meant that as - she felt even older (she's 83) having a 60 year YOUNG daughter

but my sister said something like "kathy you look so good, wonderful"

enjoying my new life

life is good

I am so happy for you - congratulations on reaching 6-0. It's just a number and you have such a young, dynamic view of life that it's actually a redundant number in relation to you :-)

And 2 years at goal ... you are an inspiration, you do everything without fuss but much humour. Your contributions on here are unique and loved by all. They also hit home when needed. Where would we be without you????

So Happy Birthday, I hope you are having a great day and that you have many, many more birthdays to enjoy your rebirth post sleeve....

Big hugs and kisses xxx

Kathy, Happy Birthday to you and congratulations on everything you have done to achieve your weight loss and your healthy state of being. You are an inspiration. I am 5'4" and want to get to 130... I think that is probably the ideal weight for my height as well. Keep making your posts. I need to know that I can do it too. Congratulations again and happy birthday on your awesome 60 years of being fabulous.

Janet

Happy Birthday!

Happy, Happy Birthday! What a wonderful way to Celebrate yourself - to consider where you are and where you were, and how thrilled you are with your life. You are such an inspiration to all of us, showing and reminding us of what it takes to meet the level of success you have! I'm thrilled for you that you are so young, and I know it's true.

ProudGrammy,

Congrats on your two year plus post-op. Happy birthday. I too don't look or act my age. I Celebrate every birthday. My philosophy on birthdays is I'd rather be over the hill than under the hill.

Kathy,

Happy Birthday. I love all your posts, they are always so positive. Thank you.

60's and look and feel this good!
