Thanksgiving

Tomorrow morning I get to run the Turkey Trot in Medford Oregon, with my entire family. That is, my mother, my husband, my brothers and their wives, my sister, my sister-in-law's parents and a friend of my sister-in-law's. Whew! That's quite a group! I am so excited about this new tradition we are starting as a family. I think it sets quite an example for our children. They get to watch us come together, have a great time and be active on a day that is usually all about food. This year I am thankful for so many things, but I am especially thankful for my health. I am so thankful that the Lord has given me the strength of body and of mind to see this weight loss program to the end. I am thankful for all of your encouraging words and your support. Tonight at work I had two different couples come up to me and comment on how they are following this blog and how great I look. They both told me to keep up the good work. You don't know how much that inspires me.

I hope you all have a fantastic Thanksgiving Day and remember; it's okay to eat a piece of the pie, just not the whole pie. ;)
