Having gained 30 pounds since January has affected my body in a lot of ways. A shirt that I almost gave away because it was HUGE is tight around the stomach now! I couldn’t believe that was the shirt I was practically swimming in at Christmas time!

When I went to buy a new pair of jeans I had to buy 2 sizes bigger than I was wearing so they would fit over my legs!

I have tendinitis in my ankle from all the extra weight I’m carrying around and I just don’t like the puffy face, being more winded and tired all the time and I have to go to lymphedema therapy!

I just want you to know that you are not alone. I am in that same boat with you! We have both had a lot of stressful things going on in our lives, but now is the time to get refocused on ourselves. We can’t help others if we don’t take care of ourselves!

Here’s the thing…we-you and I- and anyone else on here who is struggling can turn this around, and we will because we have no other choice!

Make a plan for today! Don’t worry about tomorrow. Just concentrate on making today better than yesterday.

WE GOT THIS! Love you!
