I started this journey the day of my 40th birthday. A couple of my friends and family got together and surprised me with a spa birthday. I hate surprises but god bless their hearts for being so sweet. Despite their best intentions it was a horrible and eye opening experience. I had always avoided any situation that made me feel uncomfortable but this was my birthday.. I had to be there.. I couldn't escape... I had never felt so uncomfotable in my body as I did this day. And when I saw the pictures!!!! I couldn't believe it!!! This is how I look? How the hell did I let myself go like this? It was the spark I needed... It was the day I decided that my 41st bday would be much better. And here I am... A year and a few months later... 100 lbs lighter only 20 more lbs. to lose and feeling absolutely amazing!!!
