9 days ago!

Wow its been 9 days that i have been on this new "life style", and i have not once "cheated" for real this has NEVER happened before, before i would be craving all sorts of bad unhealthy stuff, today it does not even cross my mind as something i would want, all because i am committed and ready for a new me.
9 days ago there was 7.2lbs more of me (last checked on Saturday) and i felt tired seemed like all the time, today am full of energy and can go go go. next weigh in is Feb 9Th. :), i made Eric hide the scale so i would not be tempted to sneak a peek, i want to wait til my first 17 days are up.
9 days ago was the last day i felt a heart palpation, and this in its self is worth every effort.
when i was 13 yrs old i was told by the doctor i had a mitral valve prolapse, not a big deal to most people and most people walk around not even knowing they have it, i have a much bigger problem with mine due to the valve being a little bit more "leaky" than normal. i am watched carefully by a cardiologist and checked yearly for changes. i have to be careful with things like having babies (which i done so not worried about it), infections etc.
Even bigger i was telling mom all about what has changed doing this life style change and she said "Corinna  am proud of you", wow my mom is happy for me, even when she is sick with lung cancer, it makes me so happy to know she still is mom even when she is sick, she will always be a mom and lives up to it well, i learned from the best.
 i am proud of her for fighting so hard to stay alive, that can't be an easy job to master when you are in pain. she is my hero!
Anyway that's all for today, hope everyone has a great day i know i will.
