I am 48 years old. I have 2 kids and 2 grandkids. I have lost 30 pounds in the last year. I am in the best shape of my life. I decided at Christmas that I needed to dedicate 2015 to having fun. I now have a kayak, a jeep, a bow and arrow and a bicycle. I wouldn't have any of that if I hadn't lost 30 pounds and gotten in shape. I wouldn't have done that if my friend, Allison, hadn't dragged me along to her new trainer for moral support. I am very thankful for the events of the past year that have led me to today.
I haven't written about this journey as it happened because I always think that there are enough people out there living their lives on blogs without me. But then I realized that writing your story is just something you do for yourself. To help you remember and be grateful for all of the people and steps that got you to this place. To remember that struggling and tears and bad days are temporary.
So I will try again.
