I too, am focussed on health, knowing that being toned will have a flow on benefit to my appearance, but that is not my main focus. My DH has always been careful to stay healthy and strong; he's been very unwell for sometime now and his base level of strength and fitness has kept him in good stead through hospital stays and treatment and I am sure it has helped him to stay on top of everything. I feel we owe it to ourselves and our loved ones to take care of our well being. And I am happy to join team progress, not perfection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-ladies-i-want-to-share-this-with-you#post-278509 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 10:41:52 +0000 rute 278509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is that you? That sexy, strong and fitted lady on the photo???</p> <p>Wow! Congrats!</p> <p>I have lost some weight last year and I feel great, I have more energy and I'm never sick! Healthy habits do change our life and our health, it's not only a thing that has to do with looks.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-ladies-i-want-to-share-this-with-you#post-278499 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 08:58:48 +0000 Megan 278499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW- what a transformation. You look amazing in photo 3 </p> <p>Thanks for the motivation- I've just started exercising again (not for weight loss but overall health and wellbeing) and I'm definitely going to use your "Progress, not perfection, but always progress" mantra </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-ladies-i-want-to-share-this-with-you#post-278497 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 08:50:23 +0000 wilson 278497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello healthy minded ladies! I think what you are doing is really important and exciting and I am rooting for you. After having my son (who is now six) I spent about 2 years fighting infection after infection and kept getting things like pnuemonia, mono, nonstop colds and such. I had a wonderful, easy pregnancy and birth but my immune system crashed afterwards, I think largely in part to sleep deprivation. As a normally very healthy and active person it was frustrating for me. I gained a lot of extra weight because I was too depleated from getting sick all the time to be active and too tired to shop and cook well, which I am sure added to the health problems. Anyway, I one New Year I resolved to reclaim my health again. In January a friend and I did a cleanse together and after that I had energy to start making changes. By April I had shed a good chunk of weight and was eating well enough to have energy to start being active again. That is when my friend took the first two photos I've posted. I was feeling so svelte and excited. By July I was running the miles I had left off at pre-pregnancy and had all my energy and stamina back. Most importantly I stayed out of the doctor's office and totally off antibiotics for over almost 2 years after that. That is when I had a photographer take photo #3. I felt totally healthy and successful in that photo. I didn't take a beginning photo because I didn't think of it at the time but later wished I had.</p> <p>I want to share this with you because it meant so much to me and because it is a change that not only stuck, but one that I've continued to build on since. One of the things that really encouraged me to make all the small changes was to read other people's success stories, see the proof and know that changes do happen. Health and vitality CAN be restored. Something else that really helped me was the saying "Progress, not perfection, but always progress". I am excited to read about your progress and will be cheering you on!!!! </p>
