When I Started:
Jun, 2009
How I Started:
I got started in winter 07. Even though it was going well I quit a few months later because I got stressed trying to fit working out in with my work schedule. Working out and eating healthy was a big change for me and I found it overwhelming. Now I want to give it another shot and get in better shape than I've ever been in!
Why I Love It:
It's a way to relieve stress unlike any other and it makes me feel healthy.
How I Stay Motivated:
I'm finally getting it! Seeing other peoples progress makes me strive to reach my goals so I can look back at my own progress one day. Looking at other girls and fitness magazines and seeing what I could look like always keeps me going.

I just got back into fitness which is why i haven't joined anywhere but I'm moving soon and am already looking into gyms there. Working out at home is nice if you're worried about being judged but I'd rather be in a gym. Its nice to be surrounded by people with the same goals of being in shape. The atmosphere really helps to keep me motivated.I just got back into fitness which is why i haven't joined anywhere but I'm moving soon and am already looking into gyms there.

So after my first few weeks I've had a bad couple of days. Saturday was supposed to be a cheat day for me but it turned into a cheat weekend! :-( I didn't pay any attention to what I ate and I didn't work out at all. I thought I would redeem myself Monday but that went down the tubes...
Your welcome and yeah i did... took the kids to two firework shows and went for a two late night jogs!! overall it was a nice weekend! How about yours?
Just read your blog Lauren and only had one tip. Tosca Reno's sit at www.eatcleandiet.com has a lot of great info and recipes. Hope this helps some, all the best to you in your new challenge, stay disciplined. Have a great weekend.
