Positivity Challenge. Name 3 things about surgery that has changed your life.

1. I can sleep at night without worrying my husband will be unconscious during the night when his blood sugar dropped to 40.

2. I got a kayak for my birthday this month instead of a new recliner.

3. I went to NOLA for 7 days last week and walked more than I have in 3 years.

Blessed!

    Just 3??? That is tough!!!!

    1. Realizing I am WAY stronger than I thought I was.

    2. Discovering running which has gotten me through the rough times and given me a goal to focus on that is not scale-related

    3. Re-engaged me in "life". As a busy, working mom of 4 active kiddos, I'm sorry but there is just way more you can DO physically in life as a size 4 than as a size 22. I've discovered this.
