Maybe if the struggle of the journey is shared, the burden will feel a little lighter? Let's see where this takes us!
I know it's been quite awhile since I've posted here...but I can assure everyone that I haven't given up...not in the least. The last two weeks showed a significant slow-down in weight loss...only 1.5 pounds each week...so here's my little dancing guys for three pounds over two weeks.
