1 Year Bandiversary!

I've been thinking about what to post...
I then figured I should just reflect on the past year and how my life has changed for the better!

It was Wednesday, February 24th, 2010...7am! I left the kids with my mil cause they thought I was getting an ultrasound. Yeah, I know crazy! My husband dropped me off and by 1:00pm he was there to pick me up! Got home and the rest is history...well most of you have read it! hehehe!

Today I am 159lbs...which is a loss of 73lbs! 73lbs I will never never see again and for that I will BELIEVE! I didn't think it would ever be possible. Honestly...

I am happy where I am...size 10 or 12 in clothes and feeling great! For me it was all about being able to "shop at a real store"! And dammit I can finally do it and it brings me peace! I feel real and alive! I feel sexy and my confidence is back! Just bring it!

Anyone just starting out...just believe in yourself and it will come - one day at a time!
Anyone who is in a rut, just get up and dust yourself off...today is another day!

The compliments keep pouring in...I like it but its definitely gonna take some getting used to. What were they thinking when I was 232????

Here's to all of you beautiful people that have helped me with this journey and for that I will be forever grateful! The sun is shining on the westcoast...turn up the sound, pump on some PINK and DANCE!
