Before:

1. I am so tired after work. Where is my couch? (No energy)

2. I cannot wait to eat some sweets...candy bars, cakes, twinkies whatever. (sugar addict)

3. Hope nobody notices I gained another couple pounds last week.

4. These clothes make me look fat. ( No I was fat)

5. Sorry son....daddy is too tired too play with you. (This broke my heart and gave me my motivation)

After:

1. Work day is done already? Let's run, workout or play hard!
2. I need my protein shake. Did I get 200 grams today?
3. Someone paid me another compliment...this is fun.
4. Buying clothes is so much fun. Lot of nice clothes waiting for me.
5. Son we can hike another mile, bike another route or play a little longer. Thank You God!
