My entire story is at http://www.timetogetfit.biz (click on Makeover Story).
I was an overweight child and resented being the only overweight member of my family for years. I loved to eat (still do!). Now I stuff myself silly with healthy foods and have maintained a normal weight for over 10 years.
Why I Love It:
I got addicted to aerobics in 1996. At first it was difficult to finish a whole one-hour class, but it got easier as time went on. I loved the music and the people (I will never exercise alone!), and that helped me stick with it. Now I feel like my aerobics classes are my "family," and I would never quit going, it's part of my life!
How I Stay Motivated:
I dieted myself down to 800 calories a day before I started exercising; I would lose a little weight, but always gained it all back. ONLY when I started exercising did I keep the weight off, as well as looked so much better!
BB Accomplishments:
Lost 60+ pounds, have kept it off for over 10 years. Started teaching aerobics in 1997 the month I turned 35 years old, and have been teaching now for 11 years. Have my own fitness websites: http://www.videofitnesscoach.com, http://www.timetogetfit.biz, http://www.skinnysaturday.com, and two blogs: http://www.timetogetfit.blogspot.com and http://www.timetogetfitrecipes.blogspot.com, as well as 50+ videos on YouTube -- http://www.youtube.com/videofitnesscoach.
