Wow - More Than A Month

Just realized it's been over a month since I have blogged.  Sorry if anyone was expecting more!

I've been busy, work is driving me nuts, so busy and no real support from "management".  Beyond work I have been working out with Starla and Edward - well, when one of the three of us doesn't have to cancel for whatever reason. 

I've also returned to church.  I forgot how much I love being there.  I find myself not wanting to leave after the service, or even wanting the service to end.  This week we start small group so I will get to go twice this week - pretty excited about that.  The people at The Journey Church are really fantastic.  It was like we never left.  In fact one of the greatest people I know, Belinda, didn't say "welcome back", she said, "Welcome Home!".  I can't express how grateful I was to see her and everyone else there.

I needed to get back to church to remember to be thankful to God for all he has done for me.  In addition to all my blessings, children, family, friends, a job, a house, a car, etc. I really needed to praise him for my weight loss.  Up to 123 pounds now at 10.5 months post-op.  God is so good - in fact you can't spell Good without God.  Good is really just an elongated praise of God.

Just to further give praise...I cleaned out my closet and bagged up all the clothes that are to big now.  I had 4 bags plus a box full of shoes.  I now have the clothes arranged from sizes 26 down to 14 so as I continue to lose I can easily move on to the next size.  Thank goodness for my Aunt Sandra, who gave me the majority of the clothes I am wearing - well on the top at least.  Too bad my ass (sorry but rear, bottom, or butt just doesn't work here) isn't shrinking at the same rate as my boobs or I might be able to wear her pants too.  One day at a time!
