Losing 100 Pounds

Have you ever dreamed of losing big? Plenty of us will shed 5-10 pounds, but what does truly significant weight loss feel like? What does it feel like to wake up one day and find yourself 100 pounds lighter? Well, ask Audrey Wise. She did it.

Losing 100 pounds is absolutely incredible. It is life-changing.

Is there anything harder to do? Quitting smoking, quitting drugs and quitting alcohol come to mind. But this certainly ranks right up at the top with the hardest things to do. You have almost everything working against you. You have cravings. You have people around you eating all sorts of yummy stuff, almost tempting you to have what they are having. Advertisements abound everywhere drawing you to their products. Fast food everywhere.

Only the strong can survive all this. The weak cave and give in.

It not only takes strength, it takes character. You set in your heart and in your mind standards and principles. You set rules and guidelines for your life. Then you follow them and live your life with no budging.

Not only character it takes focus and determination. There are plenty of days you will hear a voice that tells you to give it up. But you don’t listen and stick to it, regardless of how hard it is.

It takes perseverance, because it takes time to lose weight.

It takes planning and scheduling. This is not something for the weak my friend.

Audrey Wise is a rock star. She did it. I could not be any more proud.

I am proud, not just because she lost the weight. I am even more proud of the person she became in order to meet all the obstacles. She showed me she has the strength. She showed me she has the character. She showed me she has the focus and determination. And she showed me she has the perseverance. She is in this for the long haul. Audrey has become a person I really like and admire.

Yes, absolutely, Audrey Wise is a rock star. Congratulations on a major life achievement.
