MY Success Moment-30 Lbs

Chimis_Siq

So I am in process and my before and during pics are on here somewhere but I wanted to share. 3.5 months ago I was 270 and today at 240. I literally was at the point of my body being sick (alot of health issues arose) and not being able to even walk up steps because my knees wanted to explode. I almost died walking my dog 3/4 of a mile-my body felt like it was breaking, my ankles hurt, everything hurt, I couldnt breathe.

This past Sunday I ziplined 300 ft above ground . Me..ziplining? I have always had a "lets try everything once" spirit but my weight held me back. I freakin ziplined yesterday! I hiked up mountains, walked across suspended bridges, rappelled and ziplined for 4 hours non-stop-and i was LOVING LIFE (besides the occaisional height scare because I am afraid of heighths! LOL)

I must share!! I guess peeps here call it my NSV moment? ( I dont know what that means!! help? haha)

The pic is of me looking back on the zipline. This was at 300 ft above ground going 55 mph. Hardcore..yep I am!! LOL

Thanks everyone! Dont get me wrong I was scared Sh*tless on the first one ..I was so high up..lol.......but I enjoyed it because I had worked so hard for that moment..the moment that my weight didnt let me not fly 300ft above everyone on the ground.

I hiked up the mountain and kept up with all the skinnies and wasnt even out of breath!

Everything came full circle...that right there was why I exercised 1-2 hrs evryday, the soreness, the counting calories...that was why.
