I Am Thankful For A Healthy Body

Too bad today's weigh-in wasn't our final day, because due to a bout of food poisoning yesterday I rocked the weigh-in this morning.
Yesterday I felt like I had been hit by a bus! My baby felt like he weighed 50 lbs. Just doing the simple things to take care of my family seemed so difficult. It made me stop and think about how I take my healthy body for granted each day. I am so thankful that I'm healthy and strong enough (getting stronger) to do what I love to do, even if my body (currently) has a few more pounds on it than I would like.

So instead of focusing on the end result I am choosing to be happy with who I am today, and happy that I am making the changes necessary to make my body more healthy. That's what this challenge is all about!
