What keeps me going is goals.
-Muhammad Ali
By far one of my favorite quotes! There is so much truth in this statement.
Goals are such an important part of our journey. We all need something to keep us on track and moving forward in the right direction. I know for myself personally having goals helps to challenge me, especially if they are somewhere I can see them everyday.
Since January 2011 I have been following many Facebook pages. There are SO many inspirational pages, it’s unbelievable how many of us are on the same path. A few months ago I was lucky enough to stumble upon Team David‘s page. A true testament to the meaning of the word “team” !! What a truly phenomenal family!!
Last week David was having a tough time, he was ready to give up on his journey. It was unreal how many people from Team David came together with messages and videos letting him know how much he means to every single one of us!! Definitely a team I’m very happy to be a part of!!
~David is back on track and continuing his transformation~
As of today I am following Team Davids Marathon In A Week Challenge!!
I completed 8 miles today, 18.2 miles to GOAL!!

Nothing like a good Ali quote… good read
Thanks for allowing me to be a part of this James! I look forward to writing these blogs
Thanks so much for sharing, Dana. I love following you, James, Team David, Earl, and all the rest on FB every day. It is such a wonderful community of support. At somewhere in the 650 pound range, I didn’t think anyone else out there could really understand. Since meeting so many people on the same path or who have already walked the path makes it seem so much more possible! I started my journey a few years ago but paused to have my two beautiful baby boys, ages 3 and 4. Now I have a new motivation. Like you said, I want my boys to grow up with healthy habits as well as with a mommy who can be active in their lives. I am somewhere around 500 now, so it seems like a mountain in front of me, but I am moving forward every day. Thanks for sharing your story!
Hi Cass!! I couldn’t agree with you more, a really wonderful community of support. So proud of you for moving forward everyday!! That’s the most important thing, to keep moving forward. I am so lucky to be a part of so many great pages, so much inspiration and motivation!! I also just want to say that I think it’s wonderful that you have two boys, great ages too! I wish you all the best on your journey Cass!! xoxo
