Once again, I am so thankful for the life God has given me! I have been blessed in more ways than I can count but I forget to actually give thanks to God for all he has done for me and given to me.
During Thanksgiving week I celebrated my newfound ability to run by doing a 5k in Orange Beach, AL. There are not words to express how thankful I am for the body that God has given me. The past year has been a rough journey to get healthy. Now I weigh 38 lbs less and am active on a regular basis. At the beginning of this summer, I could not run one single minute so the fact that I ran a 5k is incredible. I was almost brought to tears during the run just thinking about how God has blessed me in my attempt to get healthy. I still have a ways to go but I feel like it is an easier journey from here on out because I have a healthier attitude towards exercise, food, and life in general. If anyone is attempting to start running and needs some encouragement, feel free to contact me. It has been a struggle for me and I can't say that I love running but it is kind of addicting.
