I just wanted to welcome you all to my first DietBet! I can't believe that it's currently over $18,000! It has completely exceeded my expectations! For those of you who don't know me, I started my weightloss journey in August of 2012 at 363 pounds. I joined Weight Watchers and Anytime Fitness and I lost my 100th pound on my one year anniversary of joining Weight Watchers! Walking through that door and attending the weekly meetings for support was the best decision I've ever made! I just reached my two year mark and I'm almost to 150 pounds lost. The weight gets harder to lose as you get smaller but I NEVER GIVE UP! I've had a few setbacks along the way but I refuse to let anything stop me from reaching my goal! I have a Facebook page where I share my story and give support to anyone who needs it. www.facebook.com/downwithdani I have also started a challenge group where I give the members monthly fitness challenges and we post our progress along with way and keep each other motivated. My 2014 New Year's Resolution was to work out at Anytime Fitness every day in 2014 and I have not missed a day. I've hobbled in there with different injuries and just worked on the parts that weren't hurting! I wish I would have had this do or die attitude my entire life but I'm glad that I finally found the strength and courage to never give up. This is my life now and it can be yours too. You just have to want it bad enough! And having over 10,000 people watching your every move doesn't hurt in the motivation department! Just saying! :) Good luck to everyone! Let's lose big! That's the best prize we could ever win!
