Day 53 of 100 Reasons Why: To climb mountains 🏔 Currently there’s no way I’d be able hike up a mountain at my weight. And getting back down? With MY knees?! I’d be better off sitting on my butt and scooting! But someday, once I’ve lost enough weight to take the pressure off my knees, I hope to be able to get to the very…

Day 50 of 100 Reasons Why: For water parks! I love taking my kids to our local water park but while they run up the stairs to each water slide I sit in the sun or wade in the pool below, waiting for them to come down. All those stairs are always just too much for me. And I feel so big and awkward in the tube or on the…

Day 49 of 100 Reasons Why; To thank my body for all it has done for me!

Day 36 of 100 Reasons Why: Endorphins are no joke. I never thought I’d be one to wake up at 4am for a workout. I laughed to myself as I saw my local cross-fitters jogging up and down my road dragging tires behind them on Thanksgiving morning and secretly hated anyone who shared a gym story or post workout selfie. But once…
