I'm ready to explode, I have to let it all out!

You must be so happy to get things figured out, just the stress of the unknown is enough to be unbearable! Congrats and good luck! Let me know how the "no soda" thing goes! I need to do that too and I am not brave!

Don't be fooled, I'm not brave either. Yesterday I had two glasses and today I had one, so I'm SLOWLY giving it up, I was too weak to drop it all at once, I needed some time to say goodbye lol

I have the worst luck ever, I swear...

On Wednesday, I go to orientation at school and they give us free backpacks. So I'm travelling by bus and don't want to take a big backpack AND my purse, so I stuff my purse in my bag. Then before I get to the bus stop I thought about my pass being in my purse, so I squat down and put my backpack on the ground so I can get my bus pass. So when I stand back up, I get about halfway up and my right knee locks. I look like a COMPLETE idiot standing on the corner downtown half standing half squatting, then my knee finally lets go... With a loud POP!.... So I finally get to a doctor yesterday, I damaged the cartilage in my knee. So now I get to start school on Monday with crutches, and I have to start physiotherapy ASAP... I swear if it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have ANY lol

I am super duper happy for you! And I didn't mind the hijack....it's okay. That is what BDW is for. I can't wait to see how your progress goes! Maybe we can push each other in the right direction. I used to drink soda all the time and McDonald's sweet tea....I haven't touched the stuff in two weeks and I feel so accomplished. I don't care...lol...I do...if you keep everybody posted, but please keep me posted. Now, get up and do a jig cause your life is on the right track again!

for ya!

best of luck to you!! you can do anything you put your mind to
