And the good news keeps coming...

I LOST ANOTHER SIZE!!! I have no idea how much I have lost in lbs but in two weeks I have gone down a size. It is so nice to wear clothes that I haven't worn since High School. It has officially been a month on this new eating regime (NOT DIET, this is a life change) and I feel better, look better and of course, lost inches. I look forward to next week when I go to the doctor's office and see how much I have lost.

Another good news update...I can drive. Okay, so I already could drive, but not the long distance trips I enjoyed so much before I was sick ('98). I went to visit my parents for the Easter holiday and the trip from Reno to Ely barely registered pain wise. I was a little tired but other than that, nothing! Not more than two months ago a two hour car trip would have had me out of commission for at least a day, in so much pain wouldn't be able to move. Now it is like the world has opened up to me. I can plan on trips to Point Reyes and the bay area (never into San Francisco, I am not crazy enough to compete with that stress). I look forward to seeing how much more this change in lifestyle opens up my life. I am so hopeful. :-)
