Happily Ever After - Book Two

Surprise!!!  We got married. .  . Again!!  We have known each other for ten years and were married previously from 2007-2013 and have been together almost 3 years this time around, so marriage was inevitable.  We got married Vegas Style in a Drive-Thru Window on the Strip with our best friend as our witness. It was an amazing, beautiful, fun, wedding day :)

The Details Don’t Really Matter

Today's Weigh In Weight: 315.0

My life is settling into a good rhythm emotionally and that makes me feel very happy and relieved, I have really not cared too much about what is going on with my weight, but that changed after I went to the doctor today and saw the above number looking back at me on the scale. 

How I got here? The details don’t really matter If you judge me by my weight then I’m a huge failure. But if you look into my heart and soul and judge me by what has taken place there the past three years you’d see a different story. You would see a winner in every aspect of the word.

I’m coming back to living the life that really matters the most to me, and letting go of the past. I can no longer live there if I want to move forward in all aspects of my life.

So Here I am again

So here I am again. It has been 2 years since my husband suddenly passed away. In that 2 years I have dealt with my grief for the most part, I still and am sure I always will have bad days though. But emotionally I am a lot stronger.

I also had C6-C7 neck surgery in July 2016 which had almost a 3 month recovery time. My highest weight ever (305.6) was reached during that recovery time. I returned to work in October after being of work almost 4 months and I thought I would die, but again I rebuilt my strength slowly and finally got back to par.

Now it is finally time to deal with this weight for what I hope is the last time. I will be 50 years old in May and I do not want to go into my Senior years 150 pounds over weight. Right now my goal is to loss 50 pounds by my birthday which is May 9th.
