It Can Only Get Better...


I've always thought that I could lose this weight any time I want to if I put my mind to it. The trouble is that my mind is always on food and what I will eat next. As I aged, arthritis and fibromyalgia nearly incapacitated me. One day I realized that I would never feel any betterthan I do right now unless I got the weight off. That realization was scary!

This summer I was diagnosed with uterine cancer, a direct result of being obese. I have too much estrogen in my system. I had successful surgery and I'm cancer free now. I want to get healthy! I want to make my future better!

    Thanks for your comment on my page Lollie. Sorry it took so long to get back to you as I haven't been on SP for months. I am so busy running back and forth to the Cape to help out with my mom. She is 80 years old. Her doctor did tests and told her she has to give up driving. Very sad since she was on the verge of retiring before her stroke and had big plans. Now she is stuck at home because she can't drive. She has peripheral vision loss in her left eye. No paralysis at all. Thank God.. We are looking into Assisted Living which she is open to. We just have to figure out how to finance. Other than that she is doing great. Not quite the retirement she was hoping for.

    Good Morning Lollie !!!!
    I just Love my Retro bike, too !!!!
    My brother bought it for me for my 60th birthday this month...and my Hubby bought me a bike rack for my vehicle...
    We, also, live on a hilly country road where everyone flies at 50-60mph !!!!
    I take my bike to the park and ride there.
    I hadn't rode since I was 10 yrs old, so my maiden voyage was a Hoot !!!!
    I've gotten better now so I guess the saying is true !!!
    Have a Super weekend....
