Sherillynn's Journal, 01 July 2017

The month of June will be counted as a success in the record books. I am down 5.8# and also down to a size 16 with a 14 just around the corner. I can buy all of my clothes off the rack again and I am able to do 5 mile walks like nobody's business. To say I feel fantastic is an understatement.

There are other struggles right now where I am not so successful. I lose for not persevering. I cannot persevere in my marriage any longer. It has reached a new level of dysfunction and I just cannot go there. I've also lost my business. Just saying both of these things feels like failure but I will take a deep breath and continue to do my best and live my life according to the standards and morals that I have.

People have survived worse and I will survive this. It hurts like hell. Ain't gonna lie and I have shed lots of tears in the last two months but I need peace in my life and my relationship with my husband is anything but peaceful.

The business part- I can recover from that too. I'll go back to nursing and its long stressful hours but now I have the stamina and the health to make it.

Deep breath. Carrying on...
