My weight loss journey has been a long road… but being part of this amazing community of people out there struggling (and succeeding) with getting healthy has inspired me to push on when times got tough. The number on the scale isn’t everything – but having that feedback has been critical for me.
My hope is that just as other peoples’ stories have motivated me, that my progress will help carry you.

I’ve been following you and your life journey since before my mom would allow me to set up a youtube account. I saw you struggle to get goal (I feel your pain) and \triumphantly squeeze into that yellow polka dot bikini =)…. I was elated when you met and found love in your husband and overjoyed when you had your son. Seeing your footsteps to a healthy happier you made me make the decision to join weight watchers.
Being so focus into schoolwork and being overweight has slowly made me into an introverted type of person which my close circle of friends know I’m not. I feel that losing the weight will allow me to be more of my true self without feeling so judged and having to apologize to myself about being fat. I have to say with you being so open with your blogs about weight loss and how long the road to healthy has made me feel like my slow progress is NOT such a bad thing. Just seeing how it took you almost a year to reach your 10% (same thing has happen with myself) I’m finally gonna stop beating myself up about taking so long to lose 20 lbs and stop comparing myself to fellow WW members who have been around just as long and made goal already. My time will come and I only hope that I’m ready for the transformation when it comes. Thank you so much for your honesty. =)
