    Such a great post!! I know that sometimes we give up so much quicker when it seems like we are doing this lifestyle change all by ourselves, that is why I love this site and all my MFP friends.. I think it is awesome that you wanted to reach out and encourage this person.. I want to make this a goal that when I see someone that looks like they could use a little extra support that I tell them how great they are doing, it might just make there day!

    That was a really cute message. We should all remember to route anyone we see in this fitness game on. Good for you!

    My perspective changed quite a bit...... from when i was fortunate enough to be thin and carefree... you could be snide about those with a challenge ( one that they were trying to change) and now it is so much different and I see how SHALLOW i was. Not just because I am the one now puffing along doing my best but because my maturity has blossomed to the point that I have the utmost respect for someone trying to change their world.

    And that feels GREAT!

    This post reminded me that there are many of us doing our best to change ourselves, our health and our fitness. And without support (like that here on MFP) that is a very hard road...

    thanks for the warm and fuzzy !

    You are a lovely soul. I too love to see people out there doing their best. I don't worry about what people think of me when all my bits are wobbling while I'm trying my best, because it is my best! People can be inspired or horrified, doesn't bother me!
