    I feel like I should clarify regarding the becoming my Mom statement in my intro. I love her dearly, she's a wonderful lady BUT she has never been a good healthy living role model. She yo-yo dieted my entire childhood and has basically given up on her health these last few years. She's borderline diabetic, has leg/knee issues, has high blood pressure and heart issues. Basically all things from being very overweight. She's totally caught in that habit of snacking when she's bored, happy, upset or walking through the kitchen. It's frustrating to see and even more frustrating to not be able to help her. I didn't want my earlier statement coming across and me being crappy about her. It's just her health that I'm worried about. I closed my eyes that day at the dr's office and say myself in her place years down the road then saw my son worrying about my health like I do hers. It sucked.

    Thanks for reading my story and for the support guys! It feels good to have found a community of people who are focused on being at the top of their game.

    You look GREAT! Thanks for the post. I am also short and I get discouraged really easy. Your story and photos remind me that all the exercise and eating right will pay off and my body can change if I am patient and consistent. Now am I off to do the 30DS I have been putting off all morning!
