Continuing on

In my beginning I didn't know if I could do this. I didn't know if starting on this path toward a healthy lifestyle was possible for me. Oh goodness me, I didn't know my own strength. I started in June, 2009. It's now February, 2010 and I'm still going. I have lost 30 lbs. I have lost inches. I have loved (almost) every minute of it.

I am not the only one who has changed in the past few months. I have family who have jumped on this healthy wagon, too, and every time I hear about another accomplishment, another goal they've met be it weight loss or healthy living, I cheer my heart out.

That's one thing I never expected from this. I knew my life was going to change, I wasn't aware of how the lives of those around me would change. Don't worry, I'm not crediting myself with every choice my family or friends have made, but I do think it's amazing. My family will be around longer because they will be healthier. My friends will be able to do more things because they are more active. Life will be fuller *IS fuller* because of all the of little changes we have committed to.

All this give me motivation, makes me want to keep going, keep getting stronger, keeping runner farther. Thank you to all whose live are changing. You're my inspiration.
