    Ever since I hit ONEderland over my birthday weekend, I've hit a plateau but that just means great things are about to happen!

    My words of encouragement is this: The biggest thing that's helped me during my journey thus far is patience. Without it, it's easy to give up and giving up is the last thing any of us want to do because we'll be right back where we started.
