When I Started:
2005
How I Started:
About seven years ago, I joined WW and began a weight loss journey in which I ultimately lost 110 lb. When I began I was a staunch couch potato and determined not to exercise. About midway through I joined Curves for Women which became my first real foray into exercise. I loved the machines and ultimately segued to the university gym where I work and hired a personal trainer to teach me the ropes. I fell in love with weight training at first lift!
Why I Love It:
I love the changes it brings about in my body. I love the feeling of firm muscle, the health of my body and its strength. LOL! I love shopping and wearing stylish clothing :)
How I Stay Motivated:
I am always working toward a goal.
