I’ve been on my own journey. This past week- I met a significant milestone- I made my “half weight.”

I’m really not sure what my heaviest weight was, but when I started to record my weight I was at 289#. This past week, after a little more than 2 years of work I made it to 144#.

Gratitude every day for improved health. More goals to reach but keeping it all positive along the way.

Blessings to you brother! You rock!

Best,

Dawn
