Hi guys,

I finally pulled out my camera last night and had someone snap a few pictures of me.  Yes!  Full-body shots!  They’re attached to this message!

For reference, you can click here to see what I looked like a year ago, about halfway through my weight loss.

Cheers,
Julie

Always listen to experts.  They tell you what can’t be done and why.  Then do it.

A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any invention in human history - with the possible exceptions of handguns and tequila.

thanks too, for your graditude journal.....I love reading it, and it makes me thankful.......

Way to go!  you have a lot to be grateful for!  We’re all so proud!

It’s important to know that at the end of the day it’s not the medals you remember.  What you remember is the process-- what you learn about yourself by challenging yourself, the experiences you share with other people, the honesty the training demands—those are things nobody can take away from you whether you finish last or you’re an Olympic Champion.

To tri is to risk failure, not to tri is to guarantee it!
