I've held off on talking about this for a long time. My fitness journey has been very personal; I did it only for me, so the idea of sharing it with the world has made me feel very squirrelly. I didn't set out to document my transformation, but I accidentally did via my YouTube channel. People saw the change in me over time. I've received countless messages and comments about it (most kind, some backhandedly so) and I've wondered from time to time if I should talk about it, and if so, how to do it. Well, since I'm a book person, I'll let the books speak for me. These are some books that have helped me along during my 100 lb weight loss: books that have provided motivation, wisdom, and wonder. Thank you to these authors for their help and thanks to all of you for your support. ❤️
