10 weeks!

I forgot to publish this post. Better late than never.

It has been 2 1/2 months and life is getting so much easier! I am able to enjoy things I took for grated. Seriously driving the car has gotten easier and alot more fun. Jason and I have been carpooling for awhile. This past week I drove for the 1st time in about 2 weeks. The kids headed to the bus and I followed in the car. I leave for work directly after the bus comes. Otherwise I would be walking too. As I turned the corner the stiring wheel felt really loose. So easy to turn, I almost hit a tree! I drove to work praying there wasn't something wrong with the car. Normally I have to turn it hard in order to get the wheel to turn. yes, I have popwe stiring. I finally figured out that I lost alot of inches around my belly. My stomach was no longer rubbing on the wheel! Down a total of 41.5 lbs!

I have 43 more pounds to lose before I can jump on our tampoline. We have had it for 5 year and not once have I ever been at a weight to be able to join in the fun with my kids! I haven't told them and I want it to be a surprize. I can't wait! : )

This month a friend of ours lost her husband. He was only 33 years old. He was obeist and pass way after having a heart attack. My heart ached for this family. I soon realized how important it is to share our story with others. Being over weight has caused me to be an antisocial person. I would offten have bad panic attacks, I had no self confidence. I feared going anywhere with lots of people. I missed out on my best friends daughters birthday party, many school functions for my kids, and date nights with my husband, ect. I wanted to be a nurse when I grew up but God had another path for me. I know now this is what I was ment to do with my life. Help people get optimal health! Weather its threw weight loss or helping people get off of meds or to just eat learning to put healthy foods into there body. I never want my fears to stop someone from getting healthy. Please if you or someone you know can use some help with getting healthy please don't let your fears get in the way either.
