This Sparked Me!

When I reached my heaviest I had a wake up call from my aunt who is now gone to be with God. One is God woke me up to the fact if I kept going this way I would be dead like my dad. Two was my aunt telling I was 160 lbs more than my father when he died. That alone scared me into weight loss.

MORE INFORMATION:
Now that's she's gone I have chosen to do it in her memory as well as my dad's They would want me to be healthy. God is still by my side. But I can already tell at 50 lbs lighter that walking is a lot easier for me My goal is to walk a 5k in less than an hour this year if possible
