Well the training amplified, I decided to join a local gym to pick up the pace on my triathlon training, not that it couldn't be done at home, but I needed the options of bicycling, and various other training equipment that I just didn't have access to at home. Not only that but I had no space to have such equipment at my disposal. At this point I was down nearly 70 pounds, that was the first time co-workers began to notice, crazy as that sounds, the first time someone said to me “hey Lew are you losing weight, looks like you've dropped a few pounds” with a chuckle I could only say why yes Craig I have I’ve lost 68 pounds in fact, thanks for noticing. Then others began to ask as well. It was really quite funny actually, some get mad when others don’t notice, while others get mad when someone says something about one’s weight loss. It’s sad really because some are afraid to mention anything for fear that a person may be ill, and the loss isn't intentional, so being safe it’s just not mentioned. During your journey be satisfied with your successes and not what others say after all you are in this journey for you! When others began to notice I was at a point that I had literally 6 inches off my waist, and was in a completely different shirt size and that made it even funnier. “hey Lew are you losing weight, looks like you’ve dropped a few pounds”
Since I had begun with the Windsor Pilates, one day I received an email asking how it was working for me, I took the 10 minutes to complete the survey explaining that I had much success using it daily and being faithful to its routine and that I actually loved it. Within 24 hours I had a response, asking if I would entertain the thought of being a part of a live testimonial and involved in the making of an infomercial along other success stories, and Mari Windsor and Daisy Fuentes! Who wouldn’t want to do something like that, of course I said yes! Check out the video here and next time I’ll tell more about the entire event. (to be continued…..)
