in Success Stories
I can't not believe that I am actually at the point that I am post a Success Story. I never thought that the day would come where I would feel comfortable adding a photo on the Message Boards for everyone to see!!

Today as I was going getting rid of clothes that I can no longer wear I came across these jeans size 26!

My daughter says to me "I bet I can fit in them with you now mom"

That was when my husband said "try it"

At first I laughed then as we both were getting out of the pants I started crying thinking how could I have let myself get to that point. I was so unhealthy!! I might not be to my goal but I am in the healthiest shape I have been in my LIFE! I have had crappy days that I would love to eat a whole cake or stop at the first fast food place I see, but I have came to the conclusion that it is not worth it. Exercise is now a part of my schedule it just makes me great!

I have this saying all over my house "it don't matter how long the journey takes it depends on how long you stay at the destination" because sometimes we get stuck and we just have to keep going!!
