Pixie Dust 526 Posted June 24, 2013 That's awesome! I haven't been to the beach since dinosaurs roamed the earth & I think I'm too old now to do so but I get happy hearing of other people experiencing joy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElaineB 207 Posted June 24, 2013 I am pre-op and avoid the beach like the plague. Im really happy for you that you were able to go, and feel good in a bathing suit. I hope I follow in your footsteps:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Excuse the lack of drawing talent...but think this is powerful, and a good reminder for us all that we only get one shot at this life thing...better to learn to live the challenge instead of waiting for clear skies :-) 2 ElaineB and NoneYa reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I doubt that any of us when our time is over will say "if only I had eaten one more Boston cream pie." We only get one shot at this life thing. I for one am ready to start making the most of it. 2 ElaineB and jensjoy28 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skittlejessi 18 Posted June 24, 2013 Just rode a waterslide over the weekend, was too afraid last time we went that I would look like shamu coming down and the splash that would follow, but down 35 pounds and feeling great! 2 jensjoy28 and ElaineB reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
