Hello everybody,

I wanted to share something that I consider to be a victory. My son's wedding is in 2 1/2 weeks, and I normally would have been on some crash extreme diet to try and look as thin as possible for a major event such as this. However I read PnP on my vacation in July, and decided the crash diet was not the way to go.

Today is day 9 of step one, and despite being tempted to "lose the weight" as fast as possible, I have successfully urged myself to slow down, follow the steps, and whatever weight I am at the wedding I accept.

Today I go dress shopping, and I'm actually excited about it. I know the results I want will come eventually, but more importantly right now is the steadiness and balance that RR provides.

I am thankful.

Cherri
