    great job. congrats on your weight loss. Very inspiring. I try to pick one person a day to inspire me and today it's you. I'm struggling now that it's summertime (vacation/life/bbq's/parties/lots of food) but I'm still plugging away. I could say the same thing next year at this time but hopefully I'll have lost more weight, met some of my smaller goals and still be plugging away at this.

    Well Done! You are an inspiration!

    I can relate to your story very much - but I am only half way through my weight loss journey.

    I loved the tips you gave - especially the "life Happens" tip. I really beat myself up when I have that "extra bit of cake" but you are right - make it the exception and not the rule.

    I hope that in 6 months I will be able to share the same success :)

    WOW! I thought I was reading my own story. I have not got to the end of mine story yet, it's only the beginning. I suffer from a knee injury, some back issues, and bad ankle from a 3rd degree sprain years back. I am also finding that being in the pool is the best for me right now. I try to go everyday and swim for about 2-3 hrs a day.

    Your story touched me because I am the one those people who always says "I can't do it" "It's going to hurt to much" or "I'm just going to fail so why bother" but this made me realize that I don't give myself any credit (at all). No more will I be the one who says those crappy negative things and I will make an effort to remind myself that I CAN do stuff and that it's only my mind that is holding me back.

    I owe you a huge "THANK YOU" for sharing your story. You are amazing!

    Working Out In The Beginning Was So Hard Because The Added Weight Really Caused My Knees To Get Worse. I Started Having Back Problems Too With All My Added Weight. I Was Really In Bad Shape. Aqua Aerobics Was Amazing. I Was Able ToDo So Much More In The Pool Than Just Doing Weights & Cardio. For The 1St 6 Months I Only Did Aqua Class & Did It 5 Days A Week. I Really Feel That Aqua Aeribics Is A Great Pace For People To Start Especially If They Have Knee & Back Problems.

    Changing Your Mindset & Being More Positive Is More Helpful Than You Know. I Started Saying I'll Try Instead Of I Can't. I Woulf Force Myself To Try A New Excercise & Then Determine If It Was Too Much For Me Or Not. Sometimes It Was &Then It Would Turn Into Something I Could Work Up To. Other Times I Was Surprised That I Could Actually Do It When I Never Thought I Could Have.

    Keep That Positive Mindset &You Will Get Where You Want To Be For Sure!
