It's been awhile since I've been on MFP and I have been continuing my journey...down 52 pounds and still going! :-D

BUT, I wanted to share my wife's story and her results:

About 2.5 years ago my wife decided she was going to change her life. Through hard work, diet and exercise she has succeeded in such an amazing way! 20 months into her journey she had lost 137 pounds! All done by just making changes to the way she ate and getting out and doing some exercise.

Most recently she's been featured on the cover of People's 2013 "Half Their Size" issue as well as appearing on Good Morning America and 20/20. She's wants to be able to inspire people to get healthy and to realize that it can be done without paying for programs, gym memberships or personal trainers. Little changes can lead to huge results! :-D

If you'd like to hear about her complete story you can find her on Facebook at Ashley Donahoo - Choose the Change or at her website choosethechange.net.

We're really hoping that her story can help inspire people to make a change in thier lives!

    First of all, I must give you praise for sharing your wife's story. You seem to be an amazing husband and supporter. Second, congrats to your wife. I saw the magazine, but I did not want to pay $5 for it (yeah, I know, but I live on a tight budget - lol). Now that I actually know someone (well not personally, but on MFP) that knows someone that is sharing their story in the magazine, I will put that $5 in my budget because, now, it is so worth it!!! I will check out your wife on FB and her site.

    You have done an amazing job, also! Keep it up!

    Thanks everyone! I don't know if my wife had read this yet, but I know she will appreciate the kind words!

    One last thing...if you like her Facebook page, spread the word! We're trying to reach a many people as possible and it's a snowball effect. The more people across the country that like it the faster it'll grow!

    That is great to hear. Not only has her confidence and physique improved but the fact she no longer requires medication for her prior health ailments is quite inspiring. I wish you and your beautiful wife the best.
