FB message to overweight girl running on track

As a person who has struggled with weight and health issues since highschool I for one applaud ANYONE who is willing to make a change in their life. People with weight issues many times feel very insecure going to a gym or running in their neighborhood. I’ve been there. I know.

To all of you out there who struggle with your weight…you are not alone. Your battle is not fought alone. I understand and so do countless others. All it takes is one small step at a time. One healthy choice. One ounce of belief in yourself.
