I am working out for me and my health and working on myself as a whole person. If I compare myself with others who are thinner than me I lose focus.

    I think that's why these discussions are SO important. Everyone is at different stages, and everyone has their own inspiring story. I find browsing through them keeps my head in the right place. All of you are amazing.
