What an amazing complement to be called skinny by my first inspiration! Sharon was the first person that shared her story with me and listened to me for over a year say that I was tired of being unhappy. She showed me her food log and walked me through that process numerous times. The poor thing dealt with me day after day sitting on her counter at work complaining and never once said I couldn't do it. She always told me I could and probably repeated herself 1,000 times :-) She witnessed me attempt a "Biggest Loser" competition for an entire year and all I did was gain! This roller coaster of a journey has had it ups and downs and I know it's not even close to over but I am so thankful Sharon investing time and energy in me. When I first met Sharon I did not have much confidence in myself. She has since watched me on this journey as I have come into my own and watched me find my confidence as a teacher, woman, and friend. She saw potential in me and has put me in charge of things I never imagined being able to accomplish or ever having the confidence to attempt. She has trusted me to help with her baby. Acting Out Theater Co...I am pretty sure there is no bigger compliment then being trusted. Sharon has the worlds-highest expectations of herself and those around her- I am sure she has no idea how much I have grown because of these opportunities. Thank you Sharon!!!! Thank you for repeating yourself that 1,001 time when it finally clicked and I decided I was ready to change! Thank you for believing in me and taking moments out of your crazy life for "big ol me!" :-) and now not so big me :-)

A gap...according to its definition it means a break or a space between two objects. Well, guess what....I have a GAP! Where you might ask...between my legs! Ok, I know that actually typing that sentence out it sounds ridiculous!! I am literally laughing out loud! But, for the first time in years my legs don't totally touch! I have defined quad muscles and a gap! I could cry with joy! This means my trainer Ron is not as terrible as I think! The pain is worth the gain!
