In the Snow


170 pounds / 80 pounds GONE!!!! / 51 weeks on Jenny Craig / 47 weeks at Jazzercise

On vacation in Indiana at my in-laws. I was so thrilled that it SNOWED!! It's been years since I've played in the snow. The best part.... I was able to fit into my brother-in-law's snow suit. Not only that, but he's a small guy, probably weighs less than I do... this was the snow suit he wore when he was in junior high!! He and I took the two boys (ages 5 and 2) sledding one afternoon. We made trips up and down the hill, dragging sleds and boys for hours. It was the most amazing feeling to be able to DO what I wanted to.

The last time I visited them was Oct 2002. You remember... the picture in the turquoise blue striped shirt. Yeah, that's the one.... the really BIG one. Everyone was super thrilled for me. It was a fabulous weekend in lots of ways... 1) I had just hit goal after almost exactly one year; 2) I just had my wedding rings resized (down 2 sizes) and could wear my new 10 year anniversary band on my right hand (I had been wearing it on my left hand for 5 months since my wedding rings would have fallen off); and 3) it was my 35th birthday (and my neice's 12th); and 4) did I mention it SNOWED!?
