If you've known me very long, you know that I’ve been an active person most of my life. I played just
about every sport growing up and loved dancing in college. I loved community and most of all the
ACCOUNTABILITY. Once
I moved on to the “real” world, the world where exercise wasn’t naturally built
in + an unhealthy relationship with food, I began to quickly become less
healthy. Fitness has been a
love of mine for years but was the first thing to take a back seat when kids
started to come and it wasn’t easy anymore. I know that I like a challenge and
I enjoy working out WITH people. I’m a bit of an extrovert if you didn’t know.
;)
Back in the fall of
last year I committed to getting healthier, and I was super nervous to make it
too big of a deal. I was so afraid of setting myself up for failure. I wanted
to make some BIG life changes though. Not just losing weight or building muscle,
but I wanted to be healthy all around. I wanted to be more in God’s word and
growing in my faith. I wanted to make strides to take care of this body that
God has given me. I know I’m not the only one out there with this desire—we ALL
desire that! The hardest thing I’ve had to learn is that there is no quick fix
or magic pill that will change my body. It takes hard work and commitment…making
good, healthy choices over and over again day in and day out. (Something I
still struggle with daily!)
I have LOVED being a
part of a community of women over the past several weeks that has offered me support
and encouragement daily, which has given me the desire to help others.
I have decided to
become a fitness coach which means that I would love to link arms with other
ladies and walk on this journey TOGETHER! I already feel so much better
mentally and physically and have more energy! I say all this to share a little
of me with you just in case you need a little push and accountability. I would
love to share my journey along the way and encourage you on yours as well.
