I had been batteling weight issues for for a long time. I had ballooned to over 330lbs and had started worrying about my health. Then after Christmas my mother had a heart attack and it went way wrong.I saw her her in the hospital and it scared me really bad. I looked at myself and for the first time saw myself as I really was.Fat out of shape and a heart attack in waiting.
Untill that day I had never looked at my self as anything other than fit hot and ready for anything.
What a rude awakening to see your self for what you really are.
I have 2 young boys and they are my power. I never want to let them down or hurt them. After seeing my Mom in the hospital I told my self that my boys will not see me like that if I can help it.
I went to the gym and have not looked back.
Why I Love It:
I love the setting goals and blasting them apart. I love the PAIN the success the people and the clank of the IRON!!
How I Stay Motivated:
seeing what I am made of. pushing past failure.. setting a goal and exceeding it!!
I was right in the middle of a super set. Leg press - leg curls- leg ext. I was all alone in the gym whem a person came in got on the leg ext machine and then the PHONE! when I got around there I first stood there while she talked to her friend then asked about working in then when she acted...
I agree totally on the always heavy training. That's how I sculpted my body and also how I burn off fat. Too bad you don't find more people, women especially who are not afraid of heavy weight to melt fat. Anyway, good luck to you, you are looking great!
I dropped by to say, way to go! You are really on your way and I believe that with your continued determination you will achieve all of your fitness goals. I look forward to watching your continuing progress and would like nothing better than to see you achieve all of your fitness dreams. You are an inspiration to so many others. Stay strong, focused and determined.
