Okay, Okay uncross your fingers etc. Let's have a drum role please! YES! YES! YES! I officially lost my first fifty pounds yesterday. That was an amazing feeling, especially knowing how many set backs I have had. The feeling I had yesterday has carried on today. It is a small, but important accomplishment and I can not loose sight of what I have done and what lies ahead. I have three more chunks to reach my goal - two more 50 pounds and then a 25. That is another 125 pounds! I will continue.

Today I went for a walk and as I turned the last major corner back to my house, there was a sign in front of a church. It said "Do not let what you can't do interfere with what you can do." It is amazing how this reflected my week with my ankle sprain. I was not going to exercise as much because I was too focused on my injury rather than what I could do despite it. A lesson learned!
