57 And Counting

I've become addicted to working out.

 

I started going to the gym for the first time three years ago.

It wasn't until two years that I got really serious about it.

In the last year and a half I have lost 57 pounds.
I have gone down 8 or 10 pant sizes
(depending on the jean style I'm wearing)
I always feel the most confident after going to the gym.
I always feel the sexiest in my gym cloths,
because I associate them with going to the gym.
It has become so much fun to watch
how much stronger I am getting.

One thing I am so proud of
is the fact that through this I have inspired others
I've gotten 5 emails asking for health tips
and 4 people ask me in person

I never know what to say

I am NO expert on health!
best of all my dad says I have helped inspire him
Knowing this almost made me cry
I am so proud of the progress he has made!
Every time I see him he looks a little smaller

The biggest thing I've learned is
anyone can get healthy
I don't care who you are,
or how long you've been over weight
anyone can do it.
I thought that I would never be the size I am
my original "dream weight" was 20 pounds heavier than I am now
I am in pants smaller than I ever thought I'd be

If I could do it than any one can do it

you just have to get the proper motivation.
