Getting In Shape

August 13, 2008

A woman in our community went to a diet center to lose weight. The director took her to a full-length mirror. On it he outlined a figure and told her, “This is what I want you to look like at the end of the program.”

Days of intense dieting and exercise followed, and every week the woman would stand in front of the mirror, discouraged because her bulging outline didn’t fit the director’s ideal. But she kept at it, and finally one day she conformed to the image she longed for.

Thats a great story. I don't know if I could do it as I really hate when people tell me I have to look a certain way. But it's still a great accomplishment.
