The Long Long Journey

I'm 37 years old and have a 6 year old son. I've been in the Quad Cities for about 2 years. Originally from California, but also lived in Virginia and Indiana. I'm currently going through a divorce and it's the right time to change my life. I just graduated college. Lots of changes and I need to get control! I'm looking for buddies, especially in my area and looking to lose 100+ lbs.

"Even if the challenges are immense and the obstacles are many, step forward and live the life you choose to live. Your dreams are worth every effort.
Even if you get knocked down again and again, get right back up and get going. With enough persistence, any goal is within your reach.
Even if you can’t see all the way to the end of the road, go ahead and take the first step. Each time you make some progress, you’ll find new ways to make even more.
Even if your results fall short of your expectations, keep making the effort. Each new day brings you more experience, wisdom and effectiveness.
Even if you’ve been deeply disappointed in the past, focus on the positive possibilities. For your future is what you choose to make it now."

"I will persist until I succeed. Always will I take another step.
If that is of no avail I will take another, and yet another.
In truth, one step at a time is not too difficult.... I know that small attempts, repeated, will complete any undertaking."

Hello I also live in the Quad Cities. I am on the IL side. I am sorry that I just saw your post. I am still learning about this site and all the things it offers. I am trying to find a female workout buddy but I am having a hard time. I am looking for someone that we can motivate each other. I haven't lived here long so I don't have many friends. If you would like to talk or workout together, feel free to contact me. Hope to hear from you soon.

JJ

what it would look like, and what it would feel like.
Then do something every day to make it a reality!"

"Time always moves forward whether you move forward or not. Your most effective strategy is to make use of each moment as soon as it arrives. There's no end to what you can accomplish if you'll just go ahead and get going. Now is what you have, so make now your time to begin."

Just stopping by from Rootin' for Ruby with a little motivation and encouragement! Did you know that there are only FIVE days left until Spring? Why not set yourself a mini goal that you can reach in the next 5 days?
