It's catching!

I love the fact that my BMI is now under the magic number.

But what I love even more is that I've inspired at least four others to get serious about losing weight: my spouse, one of my daughters, my son-in-law, and a lady I work with. They all credit me and my new look with getting them on the path - any staying there.

So pass it on - it's catching!

Congratulations on your healthy BMI!  That's awesome :)  And it's awesome that you're able to motivate people in your life!

Keep up the good work, always remember how good this feels, and keep appreciating how much work you've done :)

I started walking around  the lake and my neighborhood in March. I walked past this house and once in awhile I would see this woman on her front deck. She would wave and say hello and I would respond. One day she said she wanted to ask me a question. I saw that she was overweight,like I was. she also had lost her job. We are now friends and she walks with me and is starting to eat healthy. So it's almost like "Paying It Forward" but with health.

Being Healthy is CONTAGIOUS!!! I am so happy for you: it motivates you to keep on going too - it's a catch 22 in a positive way of course!!!
