Sorry that I have missed a few days. I mainly write when I am at work. And if/when I get busy, I tend not to write/post/blog. So please, if you read this, accept my apologies.
How are you doing? Have you made a change in regards to your health (eating/drinking/exercise/thinking)? If so, I am so proud of you. If not, I am still proud of you.
IT is up to you to finally reach a point where you have just had enough. THEN and only then, will you decide to just do something about it. Whatever it is you wish to change. Hell, it could be the hair color or your nail polish. IF it matters, then it is important.
So, my new right knee surgery will happen Jan 27, 2023. I am so excited. Then I will have 2 brand new knees. I am so happy and also so scared. I know I have did it before but still…..I read things online and they say the 2nd surgery is harder blah blah blah. I will face that battle head on.
So remember to focus on what you can change. NOT what you can’t.
Remember it will not happen overnight but if you keep at it, it will happen.
The hard part is the day in and the day out. Doing it even when you don’t want to.
Doing it when you are angry, tired, upset, not feeling it or just fed the fuck up.
KEEP doing it.
Yes, I am focused and I am determined but I am like you. I have days where I just want to say who cares, give me that bag of BBQ chips and 6pack of coors light and who cares, I won’t ever look like so and so.
BUT, I keep going.
You do not go from a size 3xWoman to a medium by giving up. YOU get there by keep facing forward and not looking back. You are not going that way.
One day at a time. Yes, its a cliche but but is the truth.

I really enjoy reading your blog! TYVM. I hate chips other than plain, no salt or low salt. Yes, I’m weird. I also hate Snickers, the #1 favorite of the world.
Enjoy your wonderful new you.
Thanks so much for corresponding with me. It isn’t really a new me, just a better me. Being sober def helps me stay focused but hub def also helps with that ♥
I am still on my journey. I want give up I have too much living to do with my grandkids. Hope you are well and hope we can meet up for lunch or early Sat morning brunch. Would love to see you lady, miss you!

Hi Michelle. SO wonderful to hear from you. I think of you often and always, ALWAYS hope that you are doing well. I miss working with you more than you know. BUT me leaving CARS that Dec 2017 was the best thing to ever happen to me work wise. God had that happen for a reason. And now nearly 5 yrs on, I am at a job I truly love and adore to be at and I am very content. Being who I am, and you know me better than most, it is hard for me to open up and be myself. But becoming sober has changed my life. ALSO hearing the DR say we can do your knees but you must lose weight opened my eyes to either do it (lose weight) or be in a wheel chair as I was very close to it. BUT, that was then. I am only looking at the now, day by day. YOU have got this. Little changes here and there and make it happen GF. I truly believe going low carb is the way. But eating to lose weight is crucial. I so believe in you. Never lose me okay. 🙂 ♥♥♥♥
