Hello Friends...
Well I haven't posted in a long time, mainly because I have been playing games over on facebook and on the odd occation actually putting a sentence out about the moment.
The first (February) was a pretty darn good day.
Learned that I had been back at work long enough for one of the benifits to kick in again, which is nice.
I hit a New Low Weight after having been stuck for nearly 3 months at the same point.
It isn't much but I got to enjoy a walk (not ride on a cart) through Lowe's from the front to the back and then back out to the car at a reasonable speed, and was not out of breath. It has been a long time since I have felt that I could go do something as normal as that without having to use assistance. I still have bad air days, but generally I use the 02 only at night to augment my C-Pap so that my saturation level doesn't drop to low when I am sleeping.
So as I said it was a pretty darn good day, I feel like the river of life is still got a bunch of rocks in it that we are going to have to get around. But that path is navagatable right now, and when we clear this set of rapids (always seems things happen at the same time)... We will have a little breather, and hopefully be a ton lighter (junk.. Treasures we have collected from around the house) And My Goal is as of today 27 lbs by May 10th which would be the sweatest gift I could give myself and with that the freedom to actually go and enjoy myself doing things I'd given up because they were to hard to do.
I'll try and post a bit more often, but it will be random at best. :)
Good Luck & Good Hunting
