70 Pounds Lost in 1 year :)

I began losing weight on September 25th 2012 and have done so through the hard work of calorie and nutrient tracking, routine exercise and physical training with a personal trainer my last few months of university. I never thought I'd actually post my success here until I got to my ultimate goal of 120-30 pounds, or even at all. I just got an urge to :)

I would also like to mention that I did this while also having mild cerebral palsy on my right side, and I wanted to help prove to other disabled people that it can be done...disabilities are only hinderances, not limitations. While working as an assistant for the kinesiology department chair, I was also able to get the first workout course for disabled students underway with a proposal. :)

*Just a note though, if you look at my diary these days, it's not too healthy at all, but is NOT the way I've been eating for the past year. My job is high labor, and I'll confess I've been slacking in the nutrient dept a bit the last few weeks ;) don't judge. :D

Happy fitness :)

    Such an amazing job...regardless of having some physical limitations. You look fabulous!

    And don't worry about the "imperfect" food intake (no one is perfect)...we all have to take some "sabbaticals" from being super stringent...it allows for flexibility.

    Great job!

    What an inspiration you are to us all, able bodied or with limitations, we can ALL do this with hard work and determination. There are no gimmicks or tricks to losing, just learning how to fuel our bodies to build a metabolic fire that burns up our stores of fat. Way to go! You look great.
