I joined mfp last year through one of my inspirations, my sister, "Norma". She helped me sign on, taught me how stuff works and well...almost a year later I am actually using it. About a week ago, I was talking to my mom on the phone as I usually do on my ride home after work...she is overweight and completely miserable. I ended up giving one of the most extraordinary motivational speeches of my life. It went something like "NO ONE can make you happy but you...so get yourself together and DO IT.." then I looked at myself in the rear view mirror, and said, "...walk the talk Lee". I FB'd a trainer friend of mine, and she gave me a diet to follow and weekly work out regimen...One week later I lost 4 pounds! I am huffing and wheezing my way through it as I am incredibly out of shape, but if anything my inner thighs are clapping and cheering me on all the way through my daily walks, which in a very awkward way is motivation in itself...Anyhooo, if you are looking for a cheering section please add me, as I am in need of one myself...Cheers!
