One day in 2008, I was looking through ads online and saw a treadmill (跑步机) for D|S100.This time I decided to start small and keep it doable.The first week I started walking 15 minutes on the treadmill at a fixed time every day.The next week I did 16 minutes.Each week I added a minute.Gradually, I increased speed as well as time.Once I got to 30 minutes, the weight started dropping off. I didn't lose weight at first, but I didn't give up like I did in the past.I realized I started feeling better.My legs were getting stronger.I didn't feel painful like I used to when I got up from my desk.All the efforts I'd been putting into fitness made me want to start eating healthier, too.I began with small changes as well.After these years I started listening to my body.It was refusing food and habits that were bad for me. Today, the extra weight is gone.I still exercise every morning.I look and feel the best I have never done.Every area of my life has improved and benefited from this change in me.Not only do I have my youthful energy, look and health back, but also I have more confidence than I have ever had. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过讲述自己减肥的经历告诉我们：要从小事做起并坚持不懈，最终一定能取得进步。 1．How did Michelle feel about losing weight before 2008?
