    Thanks for posting this. You rock! I've also had to do an overhaul on my life to be able to exercise, but it's worth it! You look great.

    So true! We make time for what's important.

    When I first started making fitness a priority, I was not prepared for the little bit of guilt that came with that. I mean, there are lots of good things that I need be doing. Then I realized that none of those things matter, if I drop dead of a heart attack.

    So, I made time for what's important. Me.

    Thanks for inspiring so many of us. I was one of those moms who filled my schedule up with my kids activities and made absolutely no time for myself. Now that I think about it, that was probably my cover to avoid facing the reality of how much weight I needed to lose. Well, when the kids started to comment about my weight I realized that I had to make ME time. Now I go to the gym every morning at 5:15am, and I am back in time to get them ready for school. Best part is that I have so much more energy for the rest of the day. My journey is just beginning, but I plan to keep doing what it takes just like you did. Thanks again for sharing such an inspirational story.

    Well done you! That was a huge transition and you look fantastic now, Joy. Thanks for sharing your story.

    Extreme back-pain/ paralysis was never something that I would have associated with sneaking just one more bite of cheesecake, etc. I'll be using that motivational thought from now on!

    Wow! I can't agree with you more. You have to make it happen, you're results are incredible! I am just beginning my journey, people tell me all the time. "5 days a week? I don't know where you find the time." You are proof of it. Just making time for yourself and do it. I always tell people I never want to workout, but at the end of it I'm happy! Thanks for sharing your story.
