I wanted to share a quick transformation picture. It is amazing that in one year, I have lost 60 lbs. and have gained a solid understanding and ability to control my body weight without sacrificing my lifestyle; rather I live a much better lifestyle now. The absolutely best part is that my activity level is at an all-time high point for my 45 years. To go from being completely helpless to control my weight to learning the simple act of balancing my calories leaves me in awe and excited to live my next 45 years.

    Thanks everyone!! Me looking younger was so not even a consideration when I started by it is nice to hear. Then again, the idea that I would be enjoying running is a complete surprise too.

    Thanks all. Not so much happier now than a year ago but definitely feeling more in control and have a much lower stress level even though my work is twice as busy. It amazes me that the better I take care of myself, the more effective I am at work and helping others. At my heaviest, everything felt like a burden which is not the life I want to choose.
