I write this post tonight because I want all of you to know how seriously I take my role as a fat loss inspiration. So many of you read my posts for different reasons: inspiration, knowledge, facts, funny stories, food journals, etc. Whatever brings you here just know that I really care about helping you and I certainly don’t do it for the money. LOL! I do it because every single woman deserves a healthy, fit life.
For those of you just starting your journey or are somewhere in between, I want you to know that this lifestyle is so wonderful. It just takes getting started. When I weighed 250lbs I didn’t know that I was going to succeed. I just got started doing something and each day went another step. Somehow deep down I knew there was a better life for me. What kept me going the most had to be that I had goals outside of how much weight I wanted to lose. This time I had goals that revolved around achievements and pictures. Honestly, I wasn’t very focused on the pounds as much as I focused on a race, triathlon, or the next size pants.
Maybe that’s the difference. Maybe just having goals that I could touch and feel made all the difference. I’m sure there are tons of other factors, but I bet that is the foundation to my achievement. For the first time I wanted my fat loss to be more than just my next weigh-in. I wanted to enjoy a lifestyle that naturally caused me to be healthier.
When you read this, take a moment to dream big. Visualize the lifestyle you will live once you reach a happy weight. Try tackling things you never thought possible. Just dream big and NEVER let your weight stand in your way. Start chasing those dreams and you’ll chase away that weight.
Ya’ll feel free to leave a comment and share what your dreams are. You never know when you might inspire the next person to tackle something they haven’t ever dreamed of.
