I Am Living A Dream Which has Become My Reality


Dreams do come true! I am living my dream and it has come true! One year ago I weighed 260 pounds .. I was in a wheel chair because I had fallen and injured myself. I spent a month and a half in that chair, slept in my husbands recliner with a port o' potty next to it! YES, YOU READ right!

THAT humbling situation caused me to rethink my life! I had a changing day! In a flash, one pain filled day... I woke and said "what am I doing, I am older than my then 67 years and as unhealthy as you can be!? Back pain, foot pain, and heart issues, had dominated my existence for a long time ... it was time to surrender this "eating until I drop" thing I had done for 20-ish years. Time to get a life! I called a friend who had found an answer to being overweight that had worked for her, and has lost near 150 pounds. I asked her, "will this work for a woman who cannot exercise and who has no desire to go back once she has lost her weight?" She told me "Indeed it will work for you too!" I signed up on Dec 10th, 2010 and have lost steadily ever since. Today Dec 10th one year since I began ... I have made my goal of 120 pounds of weight in the land fill no longer on me! I will never be the same again! One day at a time I lost it and one day at a time I will keep it off!

C'mon friends if this old lady can do it anyone can! God, my family, friends, a plan, and a will to do it ... UNTIL ...I am rooting for you! You too can do it! Let this be a changin' day in your life!

I am living my dream and it has come true! Thanks take Shape For Life
