My Memorial Day Weekend in a Nutshell

I had the absolute best long weekend. Made lots of good choices and ate right but also enjoyed life to the fullest.
I had Friday off for my yearly mammogram (family history and all). So that is how I started my day. Then came home and did a few things. Exercised. Went to the pool and relaxed for 2 hours. Hung out with my lovely family that night.
Saturday slept in slightly. (7 am. LOL.) Worked out. Made lunch for some good friends...one has Celiac disease so I was stressed out making sure I read every label. It was a total success as she didn't get sick so I felt really happy about that. Then we went to the pool a few hours.
Sunday got my work out in and had another lunch with good friends and more pool time. Needless to say, being Italian and I have a great tan already.
Monday was a day for reflecting and relaxing. I still started my day with my work out but spent the rest just enjoying life. It is amazing to me how the simple things bring me so much joy now. I enjoy just being. It is such a different feeling. Not really sure what it is. Maybe just that inner peace and happiness of being comfortable in my own skin. I knew life would change after being sleeved. I knew I would be so happy to get rid of the fat...but the tranquility that comes from this new found inner peace was unexpected. I am thankful every day for my sleeve and I am damn determined to never abuse my tool.
Not sure if any of you have had these feelings. Hope you all had a successful holiday weekend filled with joy and good decisions.
