Meet CONNIE... a dear dear friend
I will never forget the day I personally met Connie Pierce. The people at the Weight Watcher meeting where she was attending were in awe of her weight loss success, as well as I was as a visitor to this group. Following the meeting I had the opportunity to speak with her, and learn that she was still reaching towards her "goal" with already having lost over 160 pounds. Connie and I became email friends and stayed in contact for months through her final strides towards goal. On the day she weighed in "at goal" I revisted the group.. She did it!! Down over 180 pounds.. and it struck me as nearly unbelievable that between the two of us that day we were together down 300 pounds. total.....
Connie spoke right then of wanting to write a book and tell her story in hopes of being an inspiration to others that faced a similar road ahead. It was just months later that she told me her book had been published and would be available in just a few days. I ran home and ordered one of the very first copies.. I found this story more than inspiration.. it's a must read.. especially for those of us that think it just will never happen.
