Summer is here!

So, as I mentioned in the earliest days, I knew my life would be changing. I hoped for good changes and to be able to roll along with the not so great ones and just keep putting one foot in front of the other until I end up somewhere amazing.

So I'm trying to do that! Here's what's happening...

1) I got a job today. Yay me!
2) I am floating the Guadalupe River for the first time ever with several people I know and several I've never met. Love making new friends!
3) That new swimsuit I bought is going to have to hold out because I'm down 54 pounds now!

That's all just happening between now and mid-June. What else could be around the corner for me? I don't know, but hang on and we'll find out together!

Wow! It's been a month since I posted anything. Oops.

I'm down 47 lbs now and, indeed, I purchased a new swim suit. It's absolutely adorable and I love it! Most of the things I'm buying now are 4 sizes smaller than when I began this journey and that makes me happy. It's been a lot of years since I've been this size!

This journey is long and difficult. There's no easy fix to all this; it's all work no matter which route you take. I'm still in the gym, though I've discovered that I actually don't like it At All. I still go three times a week and try to walk on days that I'm not in the gym. I'm not perfect, but I get up and try something everyday.

I suppose that's all any of us can do each day. So, as long as we're doing and trying, we're moving somewhere!
