Things I look forward to
I’m almost down 70lbs, but I still have a long way to go! Not only am I excited to regain mobility that I had lost in gaining all the weight, but there’s a great deal of new experiences I hope to take on. I am really looking forward to opportunities that open up once I’m a healthy weight again.
