    Wow that was something else.
    Fell in bleeping snow.
    Had to crawl to car to hold onto it to get up.
    Got some clear & then a friend was coming back & helped.
    Need to get my breath back & have a rest.
    May try to venture out later.
    Car did start first attempt.

    Pap you do remind me of my sister so much, she was about your start weight and the same height if not shorter. She also has PCOS and has struggled with her weight...she is finally down to 9st ish and she is like a different person, her face always has a smile on it and she looks alive now.
    The most noticeable change on the pics is your face..you've gone from looking like someone who is truly unhappy to a photo of someone who is alive and enjoying life. The weight loss is obvious too but its the expression on your face which is the biggest change :)
    I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
