This has been an exciting week of reflection and celebration. Matt turned 16 on June 28, and we surprised him with a 90 minute flying lesson on June 26!
Michael snapped a picture of Matt that also captured me from behind – I wish I could report more visually stunning weight loss results – but these are the jeans I referenced earlier that I was able to squeeze into for the first time since 2002!
I also went through another week of Boot Camp classes, approaching the end of the 6 week challenge. I didn’t get all the check in’s posted, so my word is my bond when it comes to verifying attendance 🙂
This week also marks the one-year anniversary of our move to Washington from California. I have been reflecting on the perceptions vs. reality of the past year, with some disappointments with job market in higher education, and personal victories with finally moving forward in my weight loss goals. Every year I have battled with hypothyroidism, I have hoped that new efforts and ideas would yield positive results, and this is the first year in 10 where I am finally feeling optimistic about progress!
