I.. Inspire People?? :o)
So I remember at the beginning of my weight loss journey, I would post a lot about it on Facebook in my status updates. I remember telling Kyle, and Kyle was like well some people may not want to read about it cuz some people may think you're rubbing it in their faces. I did see what he was saying - because I did hear stories about that, and maybe there are some people out there like that. He's just like maybe post.. every once in a while instead of all the constants.
So I never quit posting about it. And now that I've lost 20 pounds (and have been maintaining it a bit for the moment due to the end of the months events), I've found that people have been inspired by me.
I'm receiving status comments, emails, and personal talks with about it. They told me that they feel inspired by me to do so. And, I feel really good about it. Awkward (cuz, that's my life lol), but good!
I'm not sure why exactly. I mean, there's people everyday that are trying to do the same as I do.
All I do wanna say is, I try to be as real as can be. I know it's hard, and hey - I'm maintaining still so clearly the last 10 pounds aren't an easy thing to do. I know I'll want to eat something horrible for me, especially during that time of the month - why not? Who doesn't? We are human.
And it does make me happy to know that I have friends/acquaintances who are looking up to me (and I'm short ha ha). I always wanted to be a positive influence in someone's life - someway, some how. Perhaps this is one of those times. And I like it.
