That Was Then...This is Now

They say a picture says a thousand words but I think these speak a million. That was then...





This is now...





It's amazing what losing 60 pounds can do. After I had Izzy I decided it was time to make some changes. I wanted to be healthly for my girls so I started by eating better and I joined Weight Watchers. In the begining for exerceise I would go walking every morning. Then one crazy day, with the encouragement of a friend and Jose I decided to run. Strangely enough I caught the running bug and I learned to love it. I always hated running and now it has become an outlet for me, even a hobbie. With a little hard work and dedication you can accomplish anything.

You look awesome! I've been thinking about doing weight watchers and joining the Y but haven't been able to commit the money to that yet. Seeing how good you look though definitely encourages me...
