I get such a kick out of the pink team!  Bettie Sue and Ali are absolutely killing it, pulling off great numbers, working through emotional issues and making for great television!  : )  I think my favorite part of the episode was when Bettie Sue was crying about how she couldn’t do it, there was no way, it’s impossible, she’s too old, too tired, too weak … all the while she was doing it!  Time after time she does what she thinks is impossible … which in my opinion, is the reality for most of us that struggle with weight.  We honestly have no idea what we’re actually capable of.  We honestly believe that we are failures and give up before we even begin because it’s just not possible in our minds.  But the thing is, we can do it.  We have to make a decision in spite of what we think is impossible and then just do it, regardless of the failure we might think is inevitable … because at the end of the day, I think we’re all going to be surprised at just how much each of us is able to do.  And there are no words to describe just how empowering it is to do something you thought impossible.  The whole world opens up!
