two years blogaversary!


Sitting around on vacation one day
March 2 years ago...


Never thought I would be stranded  due to a freak snow storm  - 
with no junk food. Just LoCarb Induction type Foods - 
In a cute little cabin in the Grand Canyon!

 
When I came home, someone said "You just went through the hard part - 
Why don't you stick with it? Maybe lose some more weight! 
And you could start a blog!"

So I thought - "Sure - Why not!"

Helps me to get out of this!

Slowly - gradually - a year went by -
Dropping pounds and inches

Time after time...
Two years now!

Before and after!

Happy and working hard!
This very day - on the way to CrossFit!

Thanks for the constant love and support!
I never would have made it one day 
without you - my Blogging People!
And I have over 800 posts and pages!

Onward and downward!
Here's to many more happy, healthy years together!

    You are an Internet Sensation! That is what I am calling now dieters that I have seen drastic results. They make them scrubs in the largest sizes. I have some baggy ones and going baggy on me is like dressing a horse.

    HAPPY BLOGAVERSARY!!!!

    The picture of you in the ball cap with your head tilted to the side with a smile is why I started following your blog. You made me think of myself in that picture and made me think of my sister. I thought you looked like me and Patty (my sis) and that by reading your words you could help me. I think you have helped me more than you know. :) Happy blog-o-versary!
