Last year, I weighed A LOT! My husband suggested I join a weight loss program. I did, but boy was I angry he thought I was FAT.
I thought the particular program I joined was for old people who had hit bottom and really had nowhere else to go. Well, as time went on, I realized that was me. My body was so tired that I felt 100-years-old and I had hit bottom. I couldn't run from my car to my door without being winded.
Early this year, when my youngest child turned one, I started running. I would run one minute and walk one and a half minutes. It was hard work. I bought a dog for a running companion. Now, months later, I run and have lost 37 pounds.
I have my husband to thank for being honest with me and telling me the facts! He really did save my life. I am now able to play outdoors with my children and run with them. Let me encourage the people who aren't sure where to start... the hardest part of exercise is putting your shoes on - the rest just follows!
Thank you, Dr. Laura for being honest in a world where we don't like to offend with the truth...The truth needs to be heard.
