oy my goodness, my list could get long, i will just pick a few
1. i can now do ANY activity that my kids do, maybe not as fast as they can, but i can do it, be a part of it and enjoy it and not tire out, i can almost keep up....hey im getting old and when i tucker out now, thats what they say, my son teases, getting old mom? but they ask me to do it now, before they wouldnt, knowing i couldnt or couldnt do it long enough to make a difference
2. be happy about myself, i should have before, but it is easier now
3. go to the gym and do the weights and cardio and know going back is going to make me healthier and stronger not just in pain
4. wipe my entire butt without having to reposition myself on the toilet a bunch of times to reach it all (TMI?
) but it really is a great one! At first i thought maybe my arms got longer, but no, now i know my butt got smaller!
5. not leave a store in tears cuz i couldnt find something that looked good in my size
6. have the confidence to stand up for myself, to speak up and to be proud of what i have achieved, i never gave myself enough credit before, for some reason that comes easier, and its not conceit, it really is confidence, so cool.
7. know that i dont have to take BP meds, that my kidneys are now functioning on their own and doing well, its turning around, and so grateful for that
8. Being able to look at the glass half full not half empty
i will quit now.
