This ride right here changed my life ....

 
 



About a year and a half ago I made a decision that enough was enough. I can't pin point an exact moment of when I thought this but something clicked. My mindset changed.
What I DO know is that this ride right here helped change my life for the better. How?


Well, 2 years ago we went to Lagoon on Fathers Day and I was going to go on this ride with my little kiddos. There aren't straps on this ride, just a bar that comes down and clicks into place over your legs. But this time, it wouldn't close. The kind teenager tried nicely to make it fit but it wouldn't. I wasn't able to ride it with my kids! I smiled. I pretended it didn't affect me. But deep down I was mortified. How could I have allowed myself to get that way?!?!

So although EVERYTIME I look at this ride I still feel sad about that day, it reminds me of how far I have come. It reminds me of my potential. It reminds me of how the small changes I make now will make huge changes in my future.

(This pic is from this year. I can proudly say I fit this time. I even had lots of room to spare! )

The Journey Over the Past Year

Oh my goodness! Thanks for all the people that reached out to me and thanked for me opening up and telling my story. There is TONS I want to share but no one wants to listen for hours on end, haha.

But I wanted to add what I have been doing for the past year. Many people asked what I did to actually get the results. So this video breaks down what I have done up to this point.

At the end of the video, I tell everyone what my next plan is. If you have questions or want more info about it, shoot me an email/text/FB message. :)

Thanks everyone! You are amazing! Today is the day to make a change!

The Journey to the Journey

If you know me then you know I like to keep things private :) I'm not outgoing, I don't wear my emotions on my sleeves, and I am pretty good at putting on my "everything is okay" face.
 
 
So I've been going out on a limb to share my story. Maybe, just maybe, it might help someone else. Just like how my one co-worker changed my life forever, hopefully I can pay it forward.
 
 
I call this video "the journey to the journey", haha. I talk about what my life was like before I started making changes and how I got there. :)
