Thankful

There is a lot in the past few months that have changed for me. It's the little things that are most amazing to me. Things like getting up in the bath tub without getting on my knees, just stand straight up. I can get into my husbands truck now without the stepping stool. Just feeling better through out my day. Have energy to take care of my mom without suffering myself. At this point in my life I try something I couldn't do in the past and I can do it. Something happens each day that amazes the shit out of me. It may be small to some, but BIG to me.

Went to Goodwill again today as I'm losing my pants at work again. I was able to find 2 pair of tan pants to wear at work. Almost all the 14's I tried on were to big. Holly smokes. I would of never thought I would fit into anything less than a 18. Even buying work clothes is fun. So when we got home I went into my dresser and took out those pair of Levi 505 jeans I bought back in October. I bought them so I could have something to grow into and look at. They fit on my butt in October but were way to tight to wear, as everything hung out because they were to tight. They fit great! AMAZING

Thanksgiving eating went well. I had just a little bit of the things I wanted. Ham, stuffing, sweet carrots, salad and a piece of a roll. Didn't eat to much and I felt good about what and how much I ate. I did have some peanut butter Reese's cup pie after dinner, just a bit as the sugar worried me a bit. Just 4-5 bites of pie and I was satisfied. Was yummy...

I weigh in tomorrow and will post what I lost for the month of November. I will take some pictures soon with some of my new clothes I got in California and my new hair that I just love. I even got passed down some clothes from Barb and I love those too. I got so many I'm not sure which one's I love the most.

Feeling good about me for the first time in my life! What a great feeling! So it's the little things that I am thankful for and greatful to be having in my life, some for the first time in my life.
