    Stay focussed, set goals, keep going no matter what. Surround yourself with people who have similar goals. I am not saying I never had bad days, I did, but I just kept going. Taking the pictures was very helpful to me. To this day I still carry my photos in my wallet as a reminder and to keep me focussed. I never want to slip back to that place.
    Also when I was training I hung out on a board for support. It was the single best thing I did. We posted daily workouts and food choices. I formed a lasting relationship with many of those people. Sad to say that board closed down and now I am here for support and motivation.

    Damn girl! You look amazing!

    I have been lifting and doing cardio for over a year now. I keep dreaming that your physique is what's inside this chunk of rock that is my physique, and someday I will chip away enough for it to be seen.

    Truly inspirational!

    I just knew it was possible for 50 year old women to look this good. It is what I aspire to. Recovering from surgery to repair fractured patella but before that threw a kink in things I was doing strength training. Just not enough. Your pictures have proved to me I need more dedication, Swimming most days now to gain back my strength and looking forward to doing squats ASAP. Thank you for sharing!!!
