Friday Feel Good Feature- Tamara went from weighing 415 pounds to lifting 641 pounds and setting world record.

This week’s inspiring story is about Tamara Walcott. She set the women’s world deadlift record last week. She lifted 641 pounds. That’s amazing, but this is more than a story of physical strength. The real story is how she got there. Tamara used to weigh 415 pounds. She was unhealthy, had low self-esteem, and to top it off, was going through a divorce 5 years ago. She made a commitment to change her mindset and her life. She started lifting weights to deal with stress. The fitness regimen helped her become more disciplined. She lost over 100 pounds the first year. Now, she has her own business, is a motivational speaker, and is a competitive weight lifter who is one of the strongest women in history both physically and mentally.
