When I Started:
Jan, 2009
How I Started:
Got an invitation in the mail when they build the new Gym in Killeen, and checked it out, I wanted to get back into working out, but with a child I needed a Gym with good childcare. Found out 3 days within signing up that I was pregnant...continued to work out though, in moderation, but had to take a break just before delivery and for a while after...then it slacked a bit, but now I started it up regularely again and am working towards my Goal. I changed the starting date to October 2007, cause I truly started regular now, I was way to slack the last months.
Yeah and that was last summer..lol...we moved in July2008 and I have been lazy since, but my new years resolution was to get of my ass and get back into it, the time for excuses is over!!..So new year, ew place, new gym..>> new me here I come
Why I Love It:
I have more energy after working out, I feel happier (for the lack of a better owrk), I know I am doing something good for my body and health
How I Stay Motivated:
looking at my kids and see their endless supply of energy keeps reminding me that I need to be in shape to keep up with them
BB Accomplishments:
So far...to be able to do cardio for 35 min without passing out (yes I was that badly out of shape that when I started back up, I was out of breath after 15 minutes)..this might not sound like much for most here, but for me it is a start ...once I got higher, more accomplishments I will add them
get rid of the babyblubber and excess fat I collected over the past 10 yrs..I want to get down to 165 lbs
Goal (Long):
As a teenager, I played semi professional Tennis, I was on the court up to 20 hours a week, practise 5 times a week, and tournaments on the weekend. I was in good shape, until a knee injury forced me to quit, and I went basically overnight from constant exercise to couch potato...needless to say.. I ballooned up, not as bad at first, but when I moved to the US, with the changes in diet, climate and then pregnancy, it got worse...I'm currently the biggest and unshapliest I have ever been and it is time to change that and become all around healthier again as well as better in shape, I have a 4 yr old and a 10 months old, I need the energy if I want to keep up with them, and I want to be able to run around the park with them for hours without feeling like I need an oxygen bottle after 15 minutes. I want to be able to fit back into the clothes I wore when I met my husband almost 10 yrs ago. I don't want to be a beanpole, I simply want to get back into better shape, inprove my overall health and change to a healthier lifestyle
ok, so as you noticed if ya checked back every once in a while I have pretty much fallen of the end of the earth (Bodyspace wise) and for a while even workout wise.
I joined Bally's here in VA and am going on a semiregular basis, but I need to kick it back up a notch or ten and am determined...
