So today marked 8 months since I started this journey, 8 months of hardwork, 8 months of dedication and 8 months of support from my family and friends and my friends on Facebook. Not only have they all supported me and encouraged me by saying how great I look and how I am an inspiration to them but by taking the time do say those things. I've been overweight since I was probably 8 years old. I'm 35. My body has taken so much abuse by not being used and treated properly. Yet, it hasn't given up on me...I'm able to run almost 10 Kms, lift weights, do a real push up, etc. I'm so thankful that I started when I did. That 35 is still young enough to change and have your body be able to help you change.
8 months ago today my life changed and I'm not going back! I'm so much happier now and healthier. I'm setting a great example to my kids that you can achieve things that you never thought you could. That it's never too late.
This is from a week and a half ago
I'm down 131.2lbs, I'm generally wearing a size large and I feel great!
So happy 8 months to me and my new body and attitude!
A friend posted this and it's so true. I didn't realize it but she's so right!
"Holy crap Jill. You lost a whole person!! At the same time, you found a new one."
Thank you Sue for this:)
