Achievement

While on vacation in Florida, we went to Busch Gardens in Tampa. Besides walking my tail off and intermittent periods of carrying a 3 year old during our stay at the park, something happened that I was so proud about. There was a zip line swing ride over a section of an area of the park called Jungala. I just had to go on it! So I grabbed my daughter and up we went to the top of the tower to go on the ride. We got on line and then I saw the park people next to a scale and were weighing adults before going on the ride. Well, my blood turned ice cold because I then realized the ride had a weight limit. I searched frantically for a sign and didn't see one, so I asked one of the women running the ride. She said the limit was 220 pounds. I jumped up and down and almost cried. Because if I did not start Weight Watchers 10 weeks ago, I would not have been able to go on the ride. But the new slimmed down version of me was able to ride and I wore a smile the entire time. Also bragged to both ladies running the ride that I was on Weight Watchers and now able to go on. She still made me go on the scale, but the scale's numbers were hidden behind a green and red indicator. Basically if the needle went to red, you couldn't go on. I was all green baby! Attaching are a few pictures of the ride, but they are of random people, not me, just to show you the ride. It was fun and lasted about 2 seconds. You just sit in a little swing and zoom across a very short distance and then zoom back. This was just a perfect example of how my life is changing and getting better by losing the weight. Never realized how many things have been eluding me. One more BONUS: My energy level was fantastic throughout the whole day. Going to the gym and down almost 20 pounds really feels great!
