    PS - some people need to find something better to do than piss all over a motivation thread.

    Quoted just because it needs to be repeated.

    I loved the story, and the presentation of it... (I was really hoping to see some sort of real pic of the person, though, just for my knowledge bank. I like putting faces with stories.)

    I guess maybe its because I know who this is for, or the fact that I love the creativeness in which it was delivered, or the fact that it wasn't a "Whoa is me!! I ate a cupcake and now I'm doomed and just need to give up and quit because I can't do this!! :sad: " thread, but I loved it!! :heart:

    I have totally admiration and respect for those who were mentioned and the many others who can pull themselves up and git 'er done!

    Great post, great story, great people!! :drinker: :drinker:

    I am so incredibly, overwhelmingly confused.

    me too.... and kind of tired after scrolling through all the cartoons

    same here.I wonder if she was banned from using the blog feature too:laugh:

    Just...wow...SMH...nothing of value to add, try adding nothing.

    To the OP: you and your shiny are slated to win, place, and show. You have my bets baby.

    Tired from scrolling through the cartoons? Well, good thing you're on a fitness site, sweetness. Perhaps after getting some exercise you'll have the stamina and fortitude to spin that scroll wheel hard enough to get all the way to the back button where you can step the hell out before you get so worn out from staring at a computer that all that remains is sorry *kitten* excuses for cheap jabs at someone who just wanted to put their story out there.

    Or perhaps this is a last ditch effort to get someone to save you from the kidnappers who have a gun to your head forcing you to read this page? If that's the case being nice instead of PMSing all over the thread would have better served you.:flowerforyou:

    I don't believe it was her story.....

    I know... because I read it ... she says it before the cartoons even start...sweetness

    I do believe he was referring to the friend whose story I posted.


    For all those who were daunted by the length... I'm sorry that the post exceeded the attention span of the many.

    TL/DR:
    She was down, and damn near destroyed - physically and emotionally
    She got up and kicked her own *kitten* into submission
    She was her own motivation
    She dominates her life (even when scared)
    And even though some people still kick at her
    She will kick serious *kitten*
    Like she does every damn day

    Shouldn't need a tl/dr because it is worth reading. But even the short version makes me want to :drinker: :flowerforyou: both of you.

    To those that don't get it, well, life has a slow lane too.

    First time I have ever come on any of this! I LOVED this story, but the comments by hurtful people made me sad, cuz someone went to a lot of trouble to share her heart. Thank you. You are loved. People care about your struggle and it made me feel happy to have those fun pictures to help explain your story! I felt really bad after going through some physical stuff a couple years ago and I thought I might never be ok. I am so much better no, but I can relate to the scariness to even go down stairs without holding on. And, when I am working out, I feel dumb sometimes, cuz my body can't do all the stuff other people seem to do with no problem at all. But, I am going to work on this. I am going to use my shine to move those numbers toward a healthier me. Thanks for sharing!!!!

    Good luck with the race, and I hope you rock those obstacles.

    And to the guys 'n gals that can't handle multiple paragraphs and Disney gifs--good luck overcoming anything that actually requires effort and concentration. But don't worry. Being too scattered to register for a commitment that's seven months ahead will help you keep that bar low.

    Mirey, you are so sweet for posting this and Yoovie, your writing is inspirational as always!!! Yoovie, you can do this because you are a superheroine!!

    P.S. I really had no idea that attention spans had become so short and literacy so devalued that ignorant people have to be burlitches in a motivation thread. I guess you really do learn something new every day! :flowerforyou:

    Unfortunately if it doesn't contain a lot of abbreviated words or acronyms some people just don't get it anymore. Sad but true.

    I loved the original post too. I know just how it feels having to build up from rock bottom and face challenges most people don't even have to think about so it was great to read this story. Many congratulations to the un-named Spartan Racer! You're bloody brilliant. Way to go!

    It should be repeated over and over. She is a inspiration to many of us.

    I cannot even begin to fathom how some people are to lazy/supid/quasi-literate to read the OP, which, by all accounts was hardly a novel and yet can somehow find the time/energy to write about how they couldn't be bothered to read the OP.

    The mind boggles.

    And good luck in the race - you can choose from: "what doesn't kill us only makes us stronger" or my favourite: "don't let the *kitten* grind you down". :drinker:

    I read it. Do not understand why it is posted by a second person, but written in first person. That aspect was strange, solicitous, and didn't ring all that true.
    I'm sure we wish well to anyone who is surmounting the odds.:huh:

    Sometimes people are allowed to blog, but not post in the forums and sometimes really cool things happen on blogs and are re-posted in the main forums for awesomeness.......
