Inspiration



Recommended Posts

This topic is inspired by a post Carolina Girl made on her blog today. It was about people saying I can't. It reminded me once of something my dad told me his marriage counselor had said to him. I've carried it in my mind ever since. The quote goes:

There is no "can't" for adults. There is only "I won't" or "I don't know how."

Think about it. Either you just won't or you don't know how. Either do it or find out how.

And my quote for this journey:

Do something. Anything. Just do SOMETHING!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
