I weighed 250 pounds and was very out of shape. Three things happened to kick me out of my rut. (1)I had several family get togethers where I looked 3 times as big as everyone else in the picture. (2)I went on vacation and was unable to do the activities that I wanted to - such as getting on a horse and then having the horse strong enough to carry me. (3)I fell and shattered my wrist in part because of my physical condition. I rehabbed the wrist past the expectations of the surgeon and physical therapist and thought to myself "If I can do that, why can't I do more?"

I stopped by to wish you nothing but success as you continue towards your fitness goal. Too many people think it can’t be done and so they don't even try but you have proven/are continuing to prove that with hard work and dedication it can. From where you were to where you are now is an amazing accomplishment. You are a true inspiration to many, many others. Stay strong, focused and determined.
