Losing 143 pounds in 2016/17 was a life changing experience. And after I did it, all I wanted to do was inspire others on their own weight loss or fitness journeys. 

​

It was so odd to be that people couldn't imagine that I'd ever been 287 pounds! And I thought to myself: what if I could "thumbs up" and cheerlead others without it being awkward or potentially insulting?

​

And that's when KGYGT was born. It was me, just wanting to cheer folks on by saying KEEP GOING! YOU GOT THIS! while passing them on a bike trail or in the grocery store or sitting next to them on the subway. 

​

And that's what this is. Not a diet. Not a fitness program. just PURE INSPIRATION! Keep Going! You GOT THIS!
