Old Me

Sometimes people write and blog and they are speaking from others experience.
Have you ever been overweight?
Do you know what it feels like?
Do you know what it's like to not have energy?
Well, for those of you who may not know me or haven't known me long, let me share with you.
I have been there.
I am not finished with my journey.
I've come a long way.
I know what it's like!!!!!
Below is the proof.

I put these here for so called "proof".  I don't want your sympathy of "you poor thing".  I put them here so that you know that I know what I am talking about and I feel your pain and your discouragement.  I will not, can not, no way, won't consider, not even a chance, ever return to this person.  It still makes my skin crawl when I look at these.  Yes, I struggle. Yes, I want chocolate. Yes, I want to eat french fries and milk shakes but I also know that it's about moderation!!!!!!!  I have Michelle C to thank for kicking me out of this.  Her challenge to just try running on a treadmill did it. At that moment, the only reason I did it is so that she would leave me alone.  I believe with everything in me that if I had stayed this size I would have....
High Blood Pressure
Diabetes
Heart Disease
Depression and a million other problems. 
THANK THE LORD FOR FRIENDS WHO CARE ENOUGHT TO PUSH!!!!!!!
