WOW!

I was just looking at the weight loss tracker up there and it is almost 1/3 of the way across! Blows my mind! That in less than 5 months I have managed to get almost a third of the way done on a goal that seemd enormous and almost impssible to reach. I have lost over 1/7th of my original weight! In just a few pounds it will 20%. WOW! Can you tell I like math and numbers?
Always before in my weight loss attempts it would take forever to just loss 15 or 20 pounds and then they would come back and bring some friends with them. Before too I never seemed to get the energy or have the stamina restored to me like it has been. I guess it is the walking. I walk for close to an hour ( sometimes more) everyday. I am walking almost three times as far in less time than I was before surgery.
I had a lot of fun at the dance. The dj was pretty good and I danced a lot. I kept thinking everytime I wanted to sit down because I didn't like the song and didn't really know it what my doctor said to me on Friday. "Keep on Dancing" some how it inspired me to stay up dancing even when all the rest of the party poopers I was with sat down. I just begged and pleaded till someone got up to dance too. Most importantly to me anyway was I once again kept my shoes on all night! I don't wear heels, and these are heels but they are good comfy sturdy platform heels that I can dance in! I LOVE DANCING!!!
