I AM LIKE THE PHOENIX…I HAVE RISEN AGAIN!

Writer: NormaYTheDietDivaNormaYTheDietDiva

Dear Followers,

I cannot believe how long it has been…I have been sick for almost three years.  It took almost a year to diagnose one of my medical issues.  I have had three surgeries in a year!  Each one took a little bit out of me…I was tired, to the point of being lethargic.  I did not have my usual determination.  After each surgery; I tried to pick myself up and start on my weight loss journey again and WHAM…some new symptom would start!

Finally, I got myself totally back to 100%.  I started exercising and losing weight.  Then, we get a call that my mother-in-law is dying.  We leave and go to Canada.  We did not make it in time.  She passed away on May 6, 2013. RIP – Leona!  We were away from home almost three weeks.

Got back to Arizona and had the worst cold ever.  I was sneezing, coughing, tired, achy and had a temp.  I could not believe it!

Well my dear blogging followers – I AM BACK!  The journey has begun again.  The LONG detour has finished.  I feel GREAT!  I have such a strong desire to reach my goal.  I will do it.  It has been a long, long road, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

On June 1, I started my Protein shakes again.  I have lost 6 pounds in 3 days.  I feel FANTASTIC!  I started taking ZUMBA classes.  Today, I took my FIRST ever Spinning class.  WOW!

The instructor’s name is Tara D.  She was marvelous.  The music was very good and really LOUD…it kept me going.  Tara had a good sense of humor and she tried to encourage all.  I really enjoyed this class.  Who would have guessed that someone who used to weigh 350 pounds…could now be in a SPINNING CLASS.

I am weighing myself daily.  I am counting my calories.  I am taking all of my vitamins.  I am drinking all of my liquid ( 100 ounces).  Plus, I have started exercising again.  I am on my way!

Hey join me….start moving…start taking care of yourself…start losing that extra weight and GET HEALTHY!
