Default WOOHOO...unintended compliment..If I can do it, u can 2!

My pilattes instructor does not know how big I used to be.....that's what made this soooo cool. She couldn't have been comparing me to the "old" me.

She was late to class because she was talking to someone about a heart attack incident a few weeks ago (the person is ok now). She went on to say that you would have never expected this person to have a heart attack because they were thin and in shape like Mike. (I'm the only Mike in the room)... She, didn't know me before this class, and she used me as an example of thin and in shape...HOW COOL IS THAT!!!

Sooo....for all of you out there who are wondering if it CAN happen for you...let me tell you that 55lbs ago I was thinking the same thing. Change your WOE/WOL, be patient, add exercise to make it go quicker and help change your shape. Do these things....and I'll be looking for your post here in a few months!!!

WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
