I have always had my ups and downs. I am happy to report I have found some of that inner strength and determination deep inside that does pop up occasionally (but usually gets pushed back down by stbx or others with their own agenda )  I am finally realizing that it is all up to me. Things I have been wanting and dreaming about ARE in the realms of possibility.  But it is time I do what I need to do... to get healthier, feel better and bring back that confidence and go after what I do want.   

I am not sure how or why, but I am finding myself in a good place.  These last few days I have been getting my act together.  Making sure the stretches and pt are done... getting back on the bike...eating light smaller meals and getting occasional snacks in.  I have not actually been truly following any specific plan, but know enough to make sure to get some of everything in to balance things out.   Some pounds have shed already and perhaps just knowing when I do put my mind to it I can accomplish that makes me finally believe that I can accomplish anything.     

LIke Jeff, I do also appreciate the fact that others are here too. And I do also need to thank you for all you have done to support and encourage me.  I truly believe that is why we are all  here (or should be)  

For the first time in a long time, I do BELIEVE I  can and WILL achieve my goals...(I wish I could rub this off on all of us)

God forbid if in a week or two I am grumbling or heading back into a funk, I would appreciate some gentle headslaps to get me back in line,  Haha
