“I am 5’3″ tall. 134 pounds lost so far. I’m far from done; I still have 26 pounds to go until my goal weight, but I’m proud of the progress I’ve made! It’s been a long journey, but I’ve never felt happier about myself and where I am. It’s amazing how much life opens up once you’ve lost over 100 pounds of sadness and shame!”
She adds these words of encouragement: “Whoever you are if you’re out there and you’re struggling and you don’t think you can do it, I want to tell you that I’ve been exactly where you are and that you ABSOLUTELY can do it. I never thought I could, and yet here I am! If I can do it, you can do it. I believe in you.”
