I was out of shape , I had let myself go for years.
Last year I lost 2 coworkers who’s deaths affected me greatly.
I decided to make a change for my family.
Since September of 2022 I’ve dropped and kept off 40 pounds.
Went from a 42” waist to a 32”.

I don’t mean any of this in a bragging way.
If I can do this , then I know you can.
Planet Fitness is $10.00 per month.

I was intimidated by the gym, in thinking others were watching me.
The weren’t, I just happened to be in their line of sight.
They were on their journey and once I realized that they were looking thru me and not at me, everything clicked.
I pushed harder , I made time no matter how tired I was

Don’t let gym intimidation stop you.
I’ve met some incredible people at the gym who look incredible, in conversation I found out that these people have lost 70 , 40 and a wonderful lady lost 110.
I pulled my inspiration from others like her.
I pulled inspiration from people who were just starting but were consistent.

Don’t let family or friends sabotage you ,by making comments.
Don’t let friends or family try to embarrass you , for doing what’s best for you.

You can do this , it’s a mindset.
Changing my way of thinking saved me.

And if I can do this , then I know for a fact that you can.
