I began my weight loss journey in March 2010 at a starting weight of 205. Today, on my 30th birthday, I am at my goal weight - having lost 55 lbs! My husband had a party for me last night and I wore the sexiest dress I could find showing off my hard-earned muscles! I'm so proud of myself and there's no greater feeling on your birthday than knowing you look STUNNING! For all who are looking for inspiration and motivation to keep going - YOU CAN DO IT! I have 3 children 10, 9 & 4 and work as a tax accountant and just finished my MBA in September. Reaching your goal weight is achievable with the right motivation and support. You can do it! If I can help anyone PLEASE let me know ;-) I want everyone to experience the confidence and pride I'm able to experience ;-) I feel so great at age 30!!!! Here's to a continued life of healthy living :flowerforyou: :drinker:
