"Whew" doesn't even begin to capture how I feel this morning waking up and realizing that I have accomplished something that, let's be honest, I wasn't sure would actually happen. I am a graduate...again. This time with my Master of Arts in Counseling from MidAmerica Nazarene University. Not only do I have my degree, but I am eligible for licensure immediately because I also have practical experience in the form of 500 face-to-face hours of client interaction and 500 professional hours! I really am proud of myself and so incredibly thankful to all of those people that helped me through it, either physically (babysitting, quizzing me, etc), emotionally (listening to me cry and complain) or spiritually (all those prayer warriors). I could NOT have done it without each and every one of you helping me through.
BUT, this is a weightloss, accountablity log...so let's put this in that context. I feel as if I have a new lease on life. It is still going to have to be a personal decision to eat well and take the time to exercise, but the fact that I have the TIME to do just that is an amazing concept for me.
So in more ways than one I feel as if my life is starting fresh and new...and hopefully this translates to being healthier too!
