>>CAVING-> 

It was so much fun to go caving yesterday. So what if my son whined a little bit, he was a trooper and did it. Yes, it took him 5 minutes to walk past a bat and a little girl held his hand so he wouldn't be scared but "hey Jack" after that he did it. I couldn't be more proud of him. 

I wanted to share this because this is what my weightloss journey is all about. I didn't start my journey here last month. I started it after he was born. I was 80 pounds heavier then I am now.  I set my goals based off of what I wanted to do. LIVE! and my idea of living is enjoying life without health issues (just comparing myself here to who I use to be not to anyone else with severe issues). I honestly use to think like a lot of other people do on here(the it's ok to cheat sometimes only really cheats yourself especially if you are like me and liked to cheat daily). In other words have a realistic plan and realistic goal. I like eat so my plan works for me because it forces me to eat every three hours.  I do really love having a community of socialization to help take this journey with me. I'm extremely grateful for this network. I'm really proud off my best friend Andrea. She is the one that told me about it.  I wonder how many people would benefit from just having a good network (outside of their buddies). I mean I have a great support network but mixing it up a bit has been good for me. Sometimes I just want to say thank you but I don't know who to say it to.. Bottom line _ just a grateful person..

Life right now is calling me to be a balanced person. I think being a well balanced person is different for differnt people. Also, for the same person at different times being "well balanced" can mean different things. Though since this is my blog I'd have to say its a three part balance (Physical, educational, and spiritual). They are all connected and as a whole I"m striving to keep them all strong to ensure a better life.... 

Again, we went caving! How amazing is life! My goal of sharing a fun life with my son is happening right now!
