So, maybe this will provide some motivation for shedding some, but also, be sure to do it in a way that is sustainable. One change at a time, maybe? <br /><br />That hike looks beautiful and you are mighty for doing it!

Losing weight and exercising has definitely helped, but I have to modify some things, like moves that require putting a lot of weight on my wrists (like tricep dips on the floor).
