I got up at 4:15AM to take my daughter somewhere. It was warm and rainy. I didn't think I would be able to go back to sleep but I did and I didn't get up until 8:00AM. I have to be at work by 8:30AM so I was in a BIG hurry. I made it !
For lunch I had a small piece of bar-b-q chicken breast without the skin, cauliflower, broccoli, and carrot mix, and a serving of yellow squash. For something sweet I got a large cup of summer fruits, mostly cantaloupe and grapes.
I'm doing the "I want to be the kind of person who..." in my head today. It really helps me to make the right choices. I'm going up to the school of nursing to get a 32 oz cup of ice water.

How I Got Here

- On May 30, 2010 I got the surprise of my life. I had a heart attack. This was after a year spent changing the way I lived my life. By that date I had lost 70 lbs, I was walking an hour to an hour and a half a day, I was walking 7 flights of stairs every day, and I was doing a 30 min stretching routine several times a week. I thought I was doing all the right things to protect my heart and then… I went through a period of thinking “Why bother?” but then I broke my ankle and had to have surgery and rehab. In rehab I learned why bother. I saw what happened to those who hadn’t taken care of themselves and I picked myself up and got back on track. This blog is my continuing story of how I am getting stronger every day – one step at a time.
