Today I feel vindicated and proud of myself. I had my annual doctor physical with the same doctor I saw last Fall who essentially shamed me about my obesity.
Of course, he was right and I now can give him some credit for the "slap."
He appeared humbled by my weight loss - he actually looked shocked! I suspect he has many patients who never listen to a damned thing he suggests so I am the exception. I told him he was the catalyst, but I did ALL the work myself, thank-you very much.
We did a full blood panel although I probably didn't need it. He said,"Wow, I just have to see all your numbers now after this significant change."
SO, last year when I left his office I was so discouraged I went to McDonald's - this year, I went to a favorite store and bought myself two new silky scarves which I will wear as my personal reminders of the day!Happy Dancing and burning some calories!
Still grateful for:
- The people I love who love me back!
- The good health of my loved ones
- My FS Buddies who support and encourage me to continue
- "Butt-kicking" myself to a smaller size today
- My DH - who is my greatest "cheerleader"
- My Bengal cat companions named Bodhi and Ravi
- My work - which has meaning and worth to other human beings
- My connection to the Mother Earth and its entire splendor
- My physical health
