CHALLENGE POST - A Success Story To Inspire Us All!

[Skailark]

Time published an amazing success story about Olga Arias, 46, who at 5-ft. 5-in. tall and tipping the scales at 260, definitely knew what it felt like to be obese. Read of her success at losing more than 100 pounds and keeping it off in an article written by Christine Gorman for Time entitled The Secrets of Their Success

If she can do it..Then You too could do it!

Thanks Skailark ... Olga and I approached our weight loss in much the same way.  Yes .. it is what the doctor has said all along .. what you eat minus exercise burned equals what you weigh.  

Of note .. that may be of interest to the community .. is the National Weight Control Registry.  Anyone who has lost at least 30 lbs and kept them off for at least a year is eligible to participate.  

Thanks for the reminder that ordinary, everyday people CAN BELIEVE and ACHIEVE their DREAMS!  WE CAN TOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
