STORIES OF INSPIRATION

Today I was feeling a little down about my weight loss this week (I haven't lost any weight this week!). Whenever this happens I like to watch videos of people that have already lost their weight to get re-inspired! So I was looking on Youtube and found Samantha Schobel. Here is an excerpt from her blog:

I am a 21-year old girl from the small town of Columbus, Texas. I am an emotional eater, an over-eater, and a binge-eater. By the time I was 20 years old, I ended up eating my way to 300 pounds and 45% body fat. I ended up starting my weight loss journey on June 26, 2008 and lost over 130 pounds in six months. By February 2008 I weighed 165 pounds. I have been keeping the weight off ever since with a good nutrition and exercise. 

WOAH! 130 Pounds lost in six months! She is so awesome, and exactly what I needed to read about and see to remind me of the highs and low of my own journey.  You guys can check here out at her site here, or watch her video I posted. I shared my inspiration for today with you guys so I want to know who is your inspiration when you are feeling down about a goal you want to achieve?
