Day 1 - GET THE HELL OFF THE CLIFF!

I have been traveling up the Pikes Peak of Weight Loss, as it is my life long challenge. Almost to the top, shedding size and now easily traveling..... I fell. Luckily, I grabbed the edge of the cliff and kept myself from the Road Runner fall to the bottom. Unfortunately, I don't seem to have the good sense to pull myself back up!!!!!!!!!!!

I loved the view from the practical top. I loved the ease of movement I seemed to have found . I loved throwing my old clothes away and grabbing less of it in replacement. I deeply love the confidence the journey revealed in me.

But, even after 9 months of traveling with the right food and step, I discovered that I am no match for delicious, wonderful, sweet smelling, and heavenly tasting.....chocolate!

CHOCOLATE IS A GATEWAY DRUG!

Once touched all other indulgences seem to find their way to my mouth without thought or resistance.

I am now hanging from the Pikes Peak cliff with the weight of a 1000 pound Chocolove Cherries & Almonds in Dark Chocolate bar bound to my ass! And I am calling out to air support to lower me some MORE!

SERIOUSLY???? !!!!!!!!!

So, today I am lifting myself off that damn cliff. Then I am going to rest here for the next 10 days and revamp for the rest of the journey to my new home! Were I will live my fit, no holding back full life!! In clothes that will make everyone judge me as I pass. With a cockiness that I always begrudged the skinny people. And a self confidence that I crave: hopefully more than Chocolove Cherries & Almonds in Dark Chocolate bars!
