Weight Loss Success Story – Shannon lost 90 pounds

Weight Loss Success Story – Shannon lost 90 pounds

Hi.  I’m Shannon.  I use to have a blog(my old username was @scraynes) but I got into a really unhealthy relationship and she did not like me having a Tumblr.  I’m now out of the relationship and working on picking myself up.

The first picture is from August 28th, 2010.  The one on the right is from November 2014.  I am 6’2″, 220 lbs now.  I was 310 lbs in the picture on the left. This is how my weight loss story developed.

I lost my grandma in 2012.  She was always on me about my weight and how I went from being a two-time state champion to an overweight “couch potato.”  Her birthday was is in January.  I decided I would do whatever I wanted until the 19th of December when I decided to start my journey.

I started off just eating clean.  Shortly after I knew I was committed to eating better, I joined a gym.  I start doing cardio then lifting some.  It became so fun that I looked more into fitness.  It’s now been over 2 years since I started my journey and I still have so much more to do.  I now run the strength and conditioning program for a local high school varsity baseball team.

You can make the change if you really want to.  It has to be in your head and in your heart.  You can’t let the naysayers tell you otherwise.  It’s your journey; no one elses.
