Today I was walking in sand without the machine. After 3 1/2 miles at the track, I could not lift my legs anymore. They decided way before my heart and lungs did that the walk was over. My brain wanted to push on for two more laps so we would all end with an even 4 miles. Maybe next weekend all my body parts will be on the same page and we'll hit the 4 mile mark.
I've lost 15 lbs total. That would be analogous to a drop of sand in the desert. And looking at the sand picture above gives one a good perspective of the journey I have still ahead of me. But I'll throw on my turban and veil, pack some water and continue the journey onward through the sand.
i'm loving all of your analogies mom! awesome.
