...that, at 63 and grossly overweight she handed me my fucking ass at the gym!

She's really been working like a rabid hamster on crack on her health and weight over the past year. She's been going swimming, which allows her to do a lot of exercises that her massive body and degenerative spine normally prevent. Then, about three months ago, she signed up at a health club and added a weight routine. She now does 25 reps of each of about 10 machines 5 times. She's already shrinking unevenly, and I tried to follow her through her routine. Without changing the weight on her machines, I was completely fucked after only two sets, and I knew that I would already be sore. To keep going was to court injury. Three days later, I'm *still* sore!

It's not every day someone hugely overweight trounces a person almost half her age at the gym. Go Mom!

I am very impressed. It is so intimidating to go to a gym and work out with the "beautiful people;" it is even harder when people stare at or overtly harass heavy people. "Go Mom" indeed!!

She is truly amazing. She's the patron saint of determination!
