Samantha Bowman, What Was Your Spark? - The Spark

Samantha's Spark: When aerobics no longer did the trick, Samantha turned to lifting with a coworker. In less than a year, she had lost 40 pounds and embarked on a fitness adventure she never could have predicted! Read Samantha's full story: It wasn't the jeans alone that led Samantha to rethink her routine, but they definitely helped. Her suddenly snug-fitting pair of size 12s tipped her off that her weekly aerobics classes might not be cutting it, and helped her realize all the other compensations she was having to make. Going up a few numbers on the scale meant a lifestyle shift, Samantha recalls. No more shopping at the fashionable stores. No more pulling off a two-piece bathing suit. Goodbye fashion, hello hiding fat. Of course, this didn't happen overnight. Rather, she experienced that incredibly common, slow-and-steady uptick that snuck up on her until she was at her heaviest in her mid-40s. I did step aerobics and pole fitness 2-3 times a week, but doing what I'd done before to keep the weight off wasn't helping anymore, she says. On average, I gained two pounds a year, despite being active. Many people would see this change as the writing on the wall. They would accept that they and their body had permanently changed. But Samantha took a stand. A chance encounter with a fit coworker set her on the lifting path, and she hasn't looked back since

The way she talks about it sounds like she's just won a battle with cancer. Woman, you were just a little bit overweight. You got fit, so I salute you for that, but please what's that drama for?

by all means, congratulations, and good job. but this whole dramatic -transformation- is a bit extreme. there's a difference in a transformation, and just losing some weight. least in my eyes.

How dare you try to motivate people to lose weight, that's fat shaming! We're supposed to be drilling it into peoples heads that fat is healthy!
