Christy this is so freakin' amazing kiddo. I am really proud of you. Just think how excited I was when I found something that had been missing for years... hehe.

As you continue this journey you will indeed continue to Feel Better. So be prepared. You are going to feel happy better, sad better, angry much much better. These can rock you a little bit but do not have to tip your boat over.

Keep in mind that we normally bounce off of extream ends of the spectrum before we learn any idea of where the middle ground is. Enjoy the ride, and try to watch from a 3rd person point of view of how you act and react to people places and situations.

It is fun to watch and learn how you act in the new life.

Mega freakin blessings kiddo. I am really proud.

I know what you mean about bones and things. I was talking to my husband online today and he said "HEY!!! Is that your collar bone?" I just laughed because he hasn't been here since October and he only gets to see me on the web-cam (he is in Iraq) so he notices little things like that. My hip bones are the worst though. When I wake up in the morning they are so sore from laying on them all night. I am hoping that will go away with time. Well congrats on your weight loss so far and enjoy the wild and crazy ride!:P

Thank you Christy for your kind words about me and my husband. It is hard especially around the holidays, but I am SOOOO proud of him. I welcome all my bone pain at this time too as I haven't seen or felt my bones in like 12 years. OK Now I am going to go get ready to leave!!! LOL
