Big Sacrifices=Big Rewards
 

:tread: When I started this diet and before I got leg braces I couldn't go anywhere and when I did it was only to stores who provided handicapped carts for the disabled.I missed a trip to Disneyland because my son didn't want to push me around the park.Just one of the many events I've missed out on. Today I incressed my walk to two blocks;my scale says I lose 3 or more lbs a week but most exciting for me is that today I do my grocery shopping walking instead of sitting for the first time in years.All of a sudden the world is filled with possibilities.This is not just my success but in large part belongs to all of you to,my friends,for your advice and encouragement has been invaluable. :flow2: :grouphug: Pam
