Wow, SD, that is GREAT to hear! Fantastic success story. Keep in mind, you may have your ups and downs, so don't get discouraged if there is some backsliding... it is all but inevitable. Just don't YOU backslide. You know what works and what doesn't. Keep at it. Make it a lifestyle choice. I'll remind you of something you said to ME back in (was it only) April when I first read PM and expressed my enthusiasm at the possibilities... it was something to the effect that I was letting myself in for a big fall... remember what I have to work with (NDW), etc.. blah, blah.. So glad you were able to see beyond that once YOU read the book.
For myself, we've been in a dry spell since Jul 28 or so, but the difference is, I'm not so uptight about it, because I realize WHY it is... and I have as much to do with it as her. Things have just been really busy, and not conducive to LM, but I know it will happen soon, and we'll get into a rhythm. I, too, feel like the old SSM days are pretty much gone, and I also feel hopeful for the future in a way I would not have dreamed of just a few months ago.
