This is the best thing that happened to me for a number of reasons not only on the outside, but who am as a person. When I try and think about the person I was, a barely remember her and I am thankful for that. All I did was drink booze every night and I didn't even know how to make a grilled cheese... all I ate was fast food... now I know that fast food not only made me gain weight, but it made me mean and angry and irritable. I had pains that were 'normal' that I no longer feel. My goals have switched from who can stay up the latest and who can take the most shots to... who can wake up the earliest and run the furthest. I was the fat girl who ditched PE every day in high school... I AM the girl who is running a half marathon in December. My goals change every month as my abilities change and I know that this is where I was meant to be. If you're feeling stuck right now, believe me, you get stronger the more you fight through it. The days when you are the most stuck are the days where you need to try the hardest and will be rewarded the greatest. KEEP ON KEEPING ON!
PS -- for those of you who have a success story, I would LOVE to feature you on my blog to help motivate other people. I try and post transformation stories to keep people inspired.. each one is different and super awesome

You look awesome!!! Thank you for sharing your story! Your words are so true for so many of us that have battled from being in school (although I'm a heck of a lot older than you LOL). Good for you, keep up the good work. Your words sound like my trainer this morning who was saying "when you feel like you have nothing left, when you are so tired, when you are doubting yourself, that is when you need to remember why you are here and what your goals are". You are stronger than you think.0
