How I did it: I had the fun and privilege of preparing for a baby girl. This baby, though planned by God, was unplanned by us and the pregnancy was physically very hard and seemed to last two years. Even with all those challenges, it was a great time in my life and I will remember it with nothing but thankfulness and good memories. Read how I did it…
How I did it: She was awesome enough to drive 30 miles out of her way to meet me and she even brought Sarah the Beautiful (who I fell in love with) to meet me! I felt like I could have stayed and visited with her for days. Photographic proof to be added later! Read how I did it…
How I did it: I tracked my progress on the calendar. I only counted cardio work-outs of 30 minutes or longer. I met friends and we kept each other accountable to show up for work-outs. Read how I did it…
