Misty Shaffer and her husband Larry Shaffer were high school sweethearts and were happily married.
Then, Mr. Shaffer was deployed to serve in Afghanistan.
Misty, who was overweight at the time, decided that she wasn't happy with her body weight and set out to change things.
The next year, she was over 105 pounds lighter- just in time for her husband to come home.
He was pleasantly surprised- and she was ecstatic. Her husband was able to lift her for the first time ever.

This is such a heartwarming story.
It makes me excited for them; not because of the weight loss, but because they're happy.

That's a lucky man
ReplyDeleteGood for her! That's great that she found motivation from the though of her husband. I bet he didn't even recognize her.
