Over one year ago, a Texas State student named Faith Pendleton flew back to America on a plane from Africa. The trip had changed her life. How that trip is still changing her life is still in the works. Since returning from Africa Faith has lost over 100 pounds and has dedicated her life to a healthy lifestyle. Not so that she can gain anybody’s approval, she does it because she believes in self-respect. She wanted to turn her life around so she took matters into her own hands. Now she is doing all kinds of things in the local fitness world. She writes a very popular blog called FitFaith and is planning a 5k with Texas Health and Racquet Club to help other people achieve life goals as well. Faith’s courage goes far beyond the initial decision to lose weight. She chose to believe in herself, in hopes it would help others believe in themselves too.
