My hope in posting my recent progress photo is to inspire and encourage others. I want to convey that real change is possible with hard work, dedication and patience. You can do anything you set your mind to if you create goals, make a plan and follow through. If you don't like something in your life, then change it! What began as a New Years Resolution for me is now reality and I am reaping the rewards of sticking to it day in and day out. Throughout this, I have also learned that when you have success in one area of your life, it tends to spill over into other areas also. You start to think "Hey! If I can accomplish this, what else can I do??" With the New Year approaching, what are your goals and dreams? Believe in yourself and your reality can become BETTER than your dreams :)

    Thanks so much guys!! I think getting healthy is the best present I could have ever given myself. I feel WAY better than I did last Christmas. I still have a ways to go, but I know I can and will get there. I am so glad I found MFP!! :drinker:

    That's great! Sticking with it is definitely the key. It's no doubt hard at times but if we all overcome those weeks and days that challenge us we will reach our goals. Good job!
