My Journey

See that girl on the top right? She is literally hiding behind her boyfriend for a photo. That was in March of 2012. The top middle photo is February of 2013 when I realized I had had enough. Enough of the hiding behind others, comparing myself to others, pretending I didn't care about my weight, and struggling to do things I used to do easily. I was not proud of who I had become and I was ready to put the work in and change. So 2 years ago I made a goal of getting in shape. It has turned out to be the one out best journeys I could have been on. 

It has been a slow journey as I didn't want a "quick fix." Well... who am I joking of COURSE I wanted a quick fix but I wasn't willing to give up things or make changes quickly to do that. And overall? I think that has helped me in the long run. Sure I gain 5 lbs here and lose it again but its 5 lbs and not 30lbs!

I have had some ups and downs and wrong turns along the way but I feel 100% better overall. I have made new friends, surrounded myself with positive people, and helped many more people change themselves for the better as well. I believe in myself and am proud of the person I have become. Am I perfect? Definitely not. But I am a little bit better than I was yesterday, everyday- and that's all anyone can really ask for. This year's goal? To commit to helping even more people reach their potential.
