Area Woman On People Magazine Cover, TV’s 20/20 After Losing 137 Pounds
January 4, 2013
A Santa Rosa County woman is on the cover of the latest edition of People magazine and was featured on ABC’s 20/20 Friday night because of her dramatic weight loss.
Ashley Donahoo, 27, was chosen for the cover of People’s 11th annual Half Their Size issue after losing 137 pounds since 2010.
“Eighteen months ago my son Zach gave me a hug and said, ‘Mom! I can reach my hands all around you.’ I started bawling because I never realized that he could never completely hug me,” the Pace resident told People.
People’s Half Their Size issue is on newsstands now. TheĀ ABC special 20/20 and People Half Their Size aired Friday night.

You should be proud of yourself, because it is harder to lose weight than it is to gain, and you have to have support to go along with willpower. I’m wondering what all you did to lose it?
