A Failure's Journey to Success: 4th of the 4th

This is a quick and cute little "tag" that I saw on Seashore's blog (http://www.seashorerose.blogspot.com/)

Go to the 4th folder in the pictures file on your computer....choose the 4th photo in that folder.

This is what I found in that spot:

It is actually a photo from my daughter's facebook album, taken this month.

Son (in law) Vinjelu with his son Seth....out for a walk.

If you want to do this, leave a comment here that you are doing it so I can go look at your 4th of the 4th.

Have a good day!

PS. My weight stayed the same after my unplanned indulgences yesterday. whew! Of course, it could show up tomorrow or the next day, yet.

Introducing Me

I am a 53 year old wife/mother/grandmother. I am 5'3" tall. On December 12, 2007 I hit bottom. In spite of my "efforts", I had gained 5 pounds in the previous month, bringing me up to my all time high of 253.0 lbs. I felt so hopeless.....and desperate. I had spent most of my life hating my body and trying almost every diet out there, only to gain back whatever I lost - and then some. I realized, at this low point, that I deserved a better life than the one I'd been giving myself. I made a decision....to begin the journey that would eventually take me to a place where I was happy with my body and where I did not feel like a failure in that respect. This blog is at least a part of my story....as I go along. I hope others will join me, will become my companions on this road to success. UPDATE.....As of April/11 I have gained back most of what I lost during the journey described above. So, I am beginning again. This is why my blog is entitled "A Failure's Jouney to Success".......I've started and 'failed' so many times and have often felt like a total failure because of it. BUT I have hope, still.....in spite of all the 'failures' that I WILL get to that elusive place where I can say I have 'succeeded'. In fact, I've proven to myself that I don't have to get to the goal to feel like a success - I only have to be taking consistent steps in that direction and pass a few milestones along the way.
