1-11-10 new 5 week pictures




Wow... Monday night, January 11, 2010. I am now 5 weeks out from surgery! I have lost 39 pounds since surgery (88 from my highest point). I just cannot believe how good I am feeling! I am feeling better now than I have in years literally! I am very surprised too, how much I am WANTING to move and be active. Tonight the kids had basketball, so I walked in the halls of the school. I made 3 complete laps, which is a full mile. I walked a mile!!! WA-HOOOOO!!!! That is huge for me! I bought myself a little portable CD player, and I have downloaded some high beat songs, so I plug myself in, and start walking! Next I will probably go deaf, because I like my music quite loud, but it does help me to walk faster, and want to keep going! I really am thrilled with my progress.

I want to make a very special note here to everyone. Your positive support, your positive comments, letters, calls... I just want you to know they mean EVERYTHING to me! I know I have such a great team. Because of each one of you.... I am going to be successful in my journey! Thank you so much!!!

All for tonight... love you... Eydie =)

  1. Eydie, You're shrinking right before my eyes! Wow! And congrats on walking a mile! Before you know it, you'll be walking 3 and it'll seem like no big deal. It's really amazing how the human body responds, heals, etc. Thanks for sharing your journey with us! <3 Deanna
