I love it when results are obvious.

To see a smile, to hear joy in someone's voice, to share a moment of triumph with them that they've achieved because of work they did--that's one of the great blessings of doing something like Dare to Lose, our weight loss challenge with Miramont Lifestyle Fitness.

Listen to the joy in Sarah's voice in the video. You can tell that she's still riding high on the elation of being able to find a balance point in her handstand in yoga class, and hold it, even if only for a moment.

Because in that moment the months of work, the commitment to eating right, showing up to workouts, pushing through when it doesn't seem possible, it all comes together. It's one fleeting moment of balance on two hands, but when that balance point is reached, it is a culmination and a confirmation that our bodies are still powerful. If we treat them the way they should be treated, we can do magical things. At 40 years old, or 15, or 60, we are capable of surprising ourselves with how strong, balanced and amazing we truly are.

I see all that in Sarah's smile.
