Brother used to take me to the gym when I was in Junior HS. Through out highscool I was a size 3-5 and avg. 110 lbs. After high school I started to gain weight and I gained even more weight after some major hormone treatments for my endometriosis and some surgeries. My highest weight was around 205 lbs, and thats HORRRIBLE for a 4'11 body build! Off and on over the last year I have been working out but not eating so healthy until recently. In dec. I started cracking down on the foods I eat as well as increasing my gym time. Ive lost about 25 lbs since december of 2008 and I want to lose more!
Why I Love It:
I love the feeling of being healthy! It makes m a more confident person.
How I Stay Motivated:
Pictures of myself from a year ago! 205lbs, yuck! I also stay in touch on a regular basis with positive people who are always giving me their advice and support.

Where do you mainly workout?
Gym
Why? What are the pros and cons of working out there?
I workout at Global Health and Fitness beause it is near my home and the actual gym is open 24 hrs a day during the week. The machines and amount of free weights with the cardio equipment is a plus since I usually dont have to wait to workout! Its clean and the people are friendly.

Do you track your workouts (exercises, weight, reps, etc.)?
So when I got serious about making a major change in my life I was at 190lbs and about 28% body fat! Not appealing or satisfactory for a 4'11 young woman! Since that day I have changed my diet, changed my workouts, and changed my outlook on life! It took some time to get used to the...
progress is coming along slow and steady, which is good. i want it to last and not be a quick fix. i cant believe that this weekend i will be heading into week 5 and have not strayed once off my diet. oh man has it been hard...especially Easter. Im taking my own food with me for the family dinner...devoted right? So how are you?
Thanks for the add Roberta! Best of luck with all your goals, remember it is ALL about the diet!!! Stay strong! Visit my website for more motivation: www.bodymotioninc.com
i would have to guess around 150-200g a day. My day consists of pills, cardio, protien...lol The most important thing is that i feel great and i have not cheated once. Lets see how the weekend goes
