Lead By Example

By Pattie N Thursday, October 20, 2011

For such a long time, I was the sideline Mom..the obese one that never did anything because I could not. Little did I know how much it affected my kids until I made some healthy lifestyle changes and lost 131.5 pounds. Now I right in the sports and events with my kids..I now participate in karate instead of watch it.

My son put his arms around me recently for the first time and could grab his hands...He said, "Mommy I can give you hugs now!" It melted my heart. They knew I was overweight and yet never said a word. But it matters...trust me!
